Japanese/Korean/Etc. Film Recommendations

[Recovery Room]

Title says it all.

I'm referring to films like Oldboy and Memories of Murder, not the horror genre that the U.S. loves to remake.

Thanks.

Oh wow, four hour runtime.

That goes by at warp speed. The film is astounding.

I always thought his movies we're a bit overrated. I didn't like Ichi the Killer and with the exception of Audition, I don't like any of his other films.

[warstory]

It's great.
You're the first person I've spoken with who also liked it! :buddies:

I probably didn't like Visitor Q as much as I should have due to the fact that I love Pasolini's film Teorema too much, and thought it took the same basic plot and made everything I loved about Teorema into complete trash.

Granted I haven't watched the film in years, I should probably re-watch.
