since you know of 'Ichi the Killer' you should check out "Vistor Q" by the same director, Takashi Miike. if you want a seriously FUCKED up family drama that goes way, way, beyond Soldonz, then you have to see this. a sampling of what to expect - incest, lactation, necrophelia, drug abuse, urination, paternal abuse. yet the whole thing manages to be somewhat heart warming when it's all said and done.

I haven't had the chance to see any yet. Ah no I lie, I did see Arizona dream but I wasn't at all impressed. I'd like to see underground though. Oh and I saw La veuve de st pierre in which he acted which was good.

i haven't seen la veuve...yet, i doubt i'll be able to get it, but i'll try.
underground is excellent, but it's double as excellent if you can understand serbian, they're just so cool when it comes to language, probably best film language there is...honestly :)

not yet, as i haven't received those films yet. after i put an order they cancelled it cuz appearntly there were lot of people who didn't pay for their orders, so they had to close down the site for about a month, however they're now opened again and i should be getting that order on monday...anyway, i have so many films that i haven't watched yet, and was puting the aside, so i finally got a chance to watch them heh. actually im watching one right now - office space, nothing much, but it's quite funny at times :)
