Deep Red
I remember this being a very well done giallo, quite possibly Argento's best. He told a very good whodunit story that will keep most, if not all viewers completely in the dark until the end; with …

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Simply put, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is one of the weirdest films that I've ever seen in any genre and any medium (and keep in mind that I've seen weird stuff that most of you wouldn't …

MoonPhase
This was easily one of the most disappointing series I ever came across. The first half was good, really good, with a good plot, character development, and lead villain. Then things went to hell really …

Wicked City
Ok, I have to admit that this was one of those anime films that made me raise my eyebrow when I saw it for the first time. I have learned to enjoy it, comparatively speaking since I have a weakness for …

Park Chan Wook's 2nd film in the Vengeance trilogy is one of the best films ever conceived, in Korea, and anywhere else in the world. Truly a gripping, riveting, contemporary classic that won numerous …

Departures (Okuribito)
Yojiro Takita's winner of best foreign film in the Academy awards. The Japanese really know how to make a film with such a depressing theme into something uplifting and yet, heart-breaking.   …

Suspiria (1977)
Quite possibly Argento's most stylish film that bombards the senses with some very colorful visuals. The cinematography is amazing and it has a very nice music score. Unfortunately, I always found this …

Machine Girl
I understand this is Japan's version of cheese, but this cheese about made me vomit. I couldn't get in to the movie at all, and I wanted to turn it off many times. I might give it another shot …

Lady Vengeance
Of Park Chan-wook's Vengeance Trilogy, this is my least favorite entry. The film is full of the expected twists and turns that are common in his films, but somehow this one didn't have the dark, …

Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance (2002)
I had no idea what to expect (other than vengeance) from Sympathy for Mr. Vengeace, the first film of Park Chan-wook's Vengeance Trilogy. I've liked Park's dark take on the thematic material …
