I read through every page and was about to say how shocked I was that no one mentioned Akira Kurosawa.

Yojimbo is definatly my favorite of his. Something about they way it's shot, it's so much more badass that other samurai films.

My other favorites are by Yoji Yamada, namely "The Twilgiht Samurai" and "The Hidden Blade". I've yet to see his other work, but I keep a sharp eye out for it because those were incredible films.

Kitano Takeshi's works are interesting. I really liked Kikojiro, and Zatoichi was fun too. I still have to see Hanabi, though. Kobayashi Masaki's adaptation of Lufcadio Hearn's Kwaidan is very good too. For a movie made in the 1960s, when special effects were still quite primative, the film still manages to set a surprisingly unnerving tone. I saw the live version of Deathnote a while back, and it was a very entertaining film. I was surprised by the ending a bit. Oh, and Kurosawa's films are always fun.

some favs - 03-08-2007, 04:20 AM

audition-This is very strange and you wont even know what the hell you are watching but you will love it anyway

Gozu- pretty much the same discription as i gave to audition

koroshiya ichi- This is probably the most desturbing film you will ever see in your entire life. The manga is even worse! Basicly its about a sadistic killer who can only cum when he kills. I guess you can call him a necropheliac because he masterbates on corpses, but he dosent rape them so i guess its kind of diffrent. While he is being tricked into killing people, a sick masaphist who loves to torture trys to track him down so he can be killed painfully.

tomie-About a girl who regenerates evertime she is killed.

uzumaki-A very strange movie about spirals. Its got strange twisted bodys and weird things like that.

ju-on-The original Japanese version of the grudge. You wont see the evil ghost woman crawl out of a womans vagina in the american version!

ringu-the original Japanese version of the Ring. You wont see autopsys in the american version!

One Missed Call-This is sort of a tribute to other great J-horror. Although i have never seen any movie except this one has telavised deaths, thats somthing new!

Takashii Miike films like Ichi the Killer and Deadly Outlaw: Rekka which is my favorite yakuza film and just probably any Yakuza film with Beat Takeshi or Tadanobu Asano.
