Would that be the same japanese samurai film I have on my harddrive in a folder just called WOLVES most likely? I should get around to watching that - I keep forgetting about it and it's been sitting there since March probably.

Just watched MARTYRS last weekend. (SPOILER AS WELL!)
Normally Iam uncomfortable with gore and violence BUT this movie grabs your attention right away and sucks you in even as the plot begins and justifies the horrible scenes of torture. It was dis-orienting knowing the story and seeing it unfold so quickly But it all made sense right as She frees the girl found in the chamber below. I has a sleepless night and the first thing my wife and I discussed on awakening was how the movie impacted us. So was it Shame and guilt that made her pull the trigger in the end?

The Interview. It was pretty good. I wonder if it borrowed from the Usual Suspects though...Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Originally posted by merzjust saw trailer for the road. for some reason, 2 minutes into it the sound engineer used the infamous 'Gut-wrenching Scream And Fall Into Distance' also sometimes called 'the starcraft scream' as its used by the terran marines. which was so out of place, i lol'd.

I just saw As Tears go by by WKW the first time. What a great debut. I actually prefer it to his slower-paced works. Couldn't help thinking of Akira when i was watching it. I read somewhere the ending is cut short. Has anyone seen the full version?

Saw The Wrestler. Really great film - powerful and without gratuitous violence or sex. Well done.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde
