On Tetsuo: The Iron Man • Sep 3, 2016
Title Tetsuo: The Iron Man
This was an odd, odd movie. But I enjoyed it overall. Unsure as to what I should rate it tbh.

Title Confessions
Probably my favourite movie of the decade.
On Battle Royale • Aug 30, 2016
Title Battle Royale
The extended edition made me appreciate it even more. Admittedly some of the acting is very iffy but it was a fantastic film regardless. It also has a lot more depth than many give it credit for. The themes regarding Japan's uber-competitive education system and on the inter-generational conflict are still prevalent.

Title Love and Pop
Hideaki Anno's first live action film.

Really messed up, but awesome. Loved Tadanobu's performance as Kakihara.
On Audition • Jul 13, 2016
Title Audition
Easily one of the most disturbing movies I've come across.
On Lady Snowblood • Jul 12, 2016

Classic chanbara romp. Definitely worth checking out if you dug Kill Bill.
On Love Exposure • Jul 12, 2016
Title Love Exposure
Sono's funny, shocking and touching magnum opus left me breathless.
On Old Boy • Jul 12, 2016

Wonderfully directed thriller. The twist at the end is one of the most shocking I have encountered thus far.
On Seven Samurai • Jul 12, 2016
Title Seven Samurai
Probably the best Japanese film of all time.
