    Ichi the Killer by Takashi MIIKE, really gore and graphic, I had to avert my eyes several times.

      I must say while being one of most fucked up movies I’ve seen it’s also one of my favorites.

        A person of culture I see! Glad you agree with my assessment

          Indeed. Have you seen Audition as well? It’s not on the same level but I think it’s great for being gore fest lol. Also it’s a slow burner and I love those types of thriller / horror movies (Audition is definitely a thriller and not horror). Maybe also Greatful dead btw.

            I’ve seen Audition, but not the other. Was Audition that gorey? I guess at the climax, but maybe I’m remembering wrong.

              The ending is extremely gory. And there is some very interesting scenes in it. I loved it.

                Yeah, it was a good movie. After thinking about the ending, I remember more of it now. Quite gory haha. The other is on my list.

            If no one has turned you onto the work of Park Chan-wook you would probably really enjoy him

              Ah the director of Oldboy. Haven’t seen any of his other films, might have to give them a try!

                I haven’t kept up with his career in a hot minute but the Vengeance trilogy, which includes Oldboy, is really good
