    I've seen around 8 of his films now and they are a mixed bunch. Audition was one of my first of his and like his other films its just weird and wacky. 13 Assassins is one of his more normal films. I loved Ichi The Killer and For Love's Sake (totally werid, basically a musical but with fighting...

    Not seen this one, Singaporean films are not at all that common. My favorite film from Asia is the Singaporen film, 15 by Royston Tan.

    I really liked his film Love and Peace. Another one of his films not mentioned is The Land of Hope, based on Fukushima Nuclear Incident and the Tsunami. Its quite powerful considering as it features the real destruction of houses from the earthquake and tsunami.

    I've recently seen, Call Me By Your Name (2017, Italy/US) 'In 1980s Italy, a romance blossoms between a seventeen year-old student and the older man hired as his father's research assistant.' By far this is one of the best films ive seen for years. Everything from the setting in Italy, to the...

    How I Got Interested in Asian Film

    Ichi The Killer is easyier to watch than Visitor Q. Yes Ichi The Killer has gore and alot of violence but Visitor Q although quite funny, shouldn't laugh really, its a black humour, has scenes that are shocking in their nature, incest, rape, prostitution and all but I quite liked it. You feel...
