Yes, Cassavetes was a totally unique filmmaker!

It's true. The first film I saw of his was Faces, and that was probably about 5-6 years ago. It completely blew me away. I had never seen anything like it before, and certainly no one's done it quite the same way since.

Creep - This was one of the better horror flicks I've seen in recent memory. The atmosphere and suspense are top-notch. The villains one scary dude too. This one I would definitely recommend to all. 7.5/10

I don't understand how Cassavetes allows us to just observe his characters. We are shown a crazy wife and a crazy husband, and, for 2 and a half hours, are allowed to know them with such emotional ferocity. What it means to you and how it makes you feel are left completely in your hands.

Fantastic movie.
Ah! I really want to see this. I'm lacking in my Cassavetes.

Awesome flick, I can't help thinking it would have been better shot in Japanese though. A lot of people say it's boring to them but I enjoyed Miike's pace personally, I think he did a good job developing a story to go along with action. The cartoon scene and BB introduction seemed a bit out of place and it lacked Miike's over the top gore but those complaints are small and and easily overlooked (actually, the lack of gore is more of an observation than a complaint). I'll probably pick this one up soon.

Oh man, Alky. You will love it.
I'd definitely recommend giving it a bump in your queue.
