The Incite Mill: 7-Day Death Game (2010)

Somewhat inspired by Agatha Christie's timeless classic mystery And Then There Were None, this is a time passing, decent thriller from Hideo Nakata. Worth a watch.

Ringu.

It was on TV a few nights ago. One day I'm going to have a double feature and decide if I prefer the original or the remake.

"I Saw the Devil" 9/10

Finally!!

I can only agree with the rest of the people in here. This is the way to make an action/thriller. non stop action and very brutal. Lovely.

My only small "complain" is that the story could've been craftet a little better.

Epitaph (2007)

This Korean horror flick comes with a mere anthology structure where it tells three separate stories that interweave with each other through it's basic period piece setting & characters. At time some multiple flashbacks make the movie a little convoluted, but eventually it manage to pull it off. There are some fine creepy set pieces, but all the stories relies more on emotionally moving contents about love & lose than the shock value. Liked the psychologically twisted last part of the film mostly. For its good production value, some beautiful cinematography & 3 decent ghost stories, it's definitely worth a watch.

Death Bell (2008) & Death Bell 2 (2010)

Like many other past decade's Asian horror flicks, I could hardly recall anything about 2008's Death Bell. So gave it a watch again before checking out the sequel. Different story & characters but the same format. Decent time wasters.

I still hadn't the patience to get through all of it needless to say that was the last chance I'm giving it. I don't hate Chan-Wook Park overall-just this movie which is best avoided completely.

Red Room (1999)
Basically this is about what people will do to win money but its intentionally absurd, satirical, pornographic, campy and sick. It includes some genuinely creative uses for household tools such as a hairdryer and a lightbulb. It's lack of seriousness makes the more twisted scenes easier to digest so you find yourself laughing rather than feeling disturbed. I'm sure some people will find it to be nothing more than cheap trash as it's not for everyone. However for entertainment value you can do a lot worse

Since most of it is in Japan, with Japanese acTORs, it'll be
"The Revenge Of Dr. X."

The last Asian movie I watched was about a mud type monster that raped and killed women. It was quite strange. I don't remember the title.

Art Of The Devil 3 which was pretty good. If you liked Art of The Devil 2 you will love this as it follows on nicely from that film.There's the expected graphic torture and it certainly makes you wince and shrink back at it-in a good way. The story was reasonable and the supernatural angles were very well crafted. A solid sequel.
