I just recently re-watched Meat Grinder. I believe it's a Thai film. Not one of the best Asian horrors that I've seen but it's still enjoyable.

Carved - Based on the urban legend of the slit-mouth woman. The atmosphere was creepy and the acting was good, but some people might get a little disturbed by the subject of child abuse.

White - A Korean flick about a girl band who does a song remake and who share a white "signature" wig. Incidentally, the wig is cursed and each girl dies weird deaths. I recommend it, if you can get past all the singing and fan girls.

I saw "The Raid", first time.
Not bad. Nice fight scenes. The three-way fight shit on what Star Wars offered us in the same.
Storyline was...errrr...not bad, I guess? Very simplistic.
Clearly the new "Dredd" borrowed quite a bit from this movie.

I read that a sequel set "two hours after the events in part 1" is coming out sometime in the next year.


I don't suppose anyone has seen an Asian film I've been wondering about...I was fairly young so don't remember a lot, but the plot involved a guy looking for his "lost" girlfriend. Spends the film searching for her, and when he finds her towards the end she's (I think) some kind've junkie and/or prostitute, doesn't remember him, and stabs him?
No idea what it was, but I was entertained enough.

"White", the Korean horror film. It was ok. Not particularly scary. I give it 2 out of 5.

Not really a movie, but on Youtube tonight I'm watching Tales of Terror from Japan. They're shorts (about 5:00 each). Creepy enough. Well done.

I finally got around to watching Thirst last night, really enjoyed it.

I know it's a bit slow and over-long for a lot of people but I didn't really find that, though I did stop it about halfway through to make dinner : )

Great story, lovely cinematography, decent characters and acting, quite a few laughs and several ewwwww moments, I found myself totally immersed in it.

Thirst is one of my favorite movies. I didn't think it was too long at all.
This morning, I watched a Japanese film called Versus. It was by the same guy who went on to direct The Midnight Meat Train and No One Lives.
It was a really fun action movie, kind of reminded me of Blade and Desperado. It was silly and over the top, and the plot progressively got weirder as it went along. It's not as bizarre as Tokyo Gore Police or Mutant Girls Squad, but I recommend if if you're a fan of Asian B movies.

A Tale of Two Sisters :eek:

Just finally got around to watching Oldboy last week. Figured I needed to see the original before I even considered watching a remake. It was amazing. The cinematography was great and the acting was impeccable. I know most people have probably already seen it, but I can't praise it more highly. It will take some amazing reviews of the remake for me to want to go see that one as well.

3 Extremes

Never disappointed with those.
