WATCH THIS MOVIE!!!
i cant mention anything about it as it will give an aspect of the intense mind fuckery away... literally the best movie i have ever seen... i'm only willing to give the tag line: "15 years of imprisonment, five days of vengeance "
just know that if you can find it, buy it, watch it, love it... it is the most psychologically fucked movie i have ever seen, chan-wook park man handles stanley kubrick... nothing has and never will compare to this movie, go get it now.

Hideous MAN
By far one of the best movies I've seen in the last decade.
A complete mindfuck.
awesome ramon
... please tell me you've seen Casshern too... how is the land of Thai?
No, Hiddyman. I haven't.
I'll look for it, though. Found this tiny shop that only sells Korean and Japanese movies.
Here, check these out:
1. Wonderful Days (Kor - manga)
2. The God Fathers (Jap - manga)
3. Death Note (I & II - Jap)
4. The Audition (Jap - total mindfuck)
5. Karma (Kor)
ramon
if i can find them i will... at the moment just relishing in Casshern, Shinobi, Oldboy, Azumi, and Elfen Lied(one of the best anime's ever)
the audition, mind fuck like oldboy... or more toned down?
Azumi, Shinobi
Classic.
I found The Audition more disturbing, though. i still have nightmares about that woman...
The Audition
is bloody but absolutely brillant. Try watch Three Extremes as well. The first story is extremely gruesome.
I've heard Itchi the Killer is also brillant and very violent. So I'll be tracking that down next.
well
thats me sold then... will be ordering it this weekend :D
shinobi was very cool for a fucking sad movie.
Azumi... well the psycho in the white with the rose made it all worth while... staring at Azumi helped though ;)
Old Boy ROCKS
A superb, superb movie, with a juicy theme, this movie depicts violence in a realistic and uncomfortable manner that Hollywood couldn't duplicate for 150 million dollars. We know, because they've tried. "Unflinching" depiction of vengeance.
