While there are a few gems in the rough (R Point, The Booth, Whispering Corridors) most of them are pretty much crap! But, like the After Dark series, at least they're fun crap.Joe Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10160822944514723178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9469928.post-71811915776087555872007-04-02T16:34:00.000-07:002007-04-02T16:34:00.000-07:00I purchased the Limited Edition of Oldboy a week a...I purchased the Limited Edition of Oldboy a week ago and was finally able to watch it today, albeit it was on an airplane. I spent a better part of the time, turning my screen so no one else could watch it. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, Tartan has an excellent montage of all these Asian Extreme movies. I swear, I wanted to watch every single one because visually they looked amazing. <BR/><BR/>I will try to track down that Film Comment because this is something I want to look further into.PIPERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13054305230216613759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9469928.post-45925612919317843072007-03-23T20:37:00.000-07:002007-03-23T20:37:00.000-07:00Piper,If you can find a copy of the November-Decem...Piper,<BR/><BR/>If you can find a copy of the November-December 2004 "Film Comment", they have a pretty exhaustive mid-section that details some of the best of Korean cinema up until that point. Of course since then we've seen the emergence of Park Chan Wook, Bong Jo-Hoo and many others, but you can't go wrong with their selections if you want further viewing.Joe Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10160822944514723178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9469928.post-60894970557284487762007-03-23T18:31:00.000-07:002007-03-23T18:31:00.000-07:00I thought The Host was excellent and Oldboy is amo...I thought The Host was excellent and Oldboy is among my favorite movies. I'll have to check out your other suggestions but it's no doubt Korean cinema is moving and shaking.PIPERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13054305230216613759noreply@blogger.com
