Eye 10
(2006)
Horror with humour! Yes, I know that some will hate this because they expect everything from the famous Pang Brothers to be serious and morbid, but I really enjoyed this film from start to finish. I would highly recommend this film only to those already familiar with the Pang Brothers or else are fans of Asian Horror and are willing to give most Asian Horror a chance.
Asian Horror
Since Japanese horror sensations The Ring and Audition first terrified Western audiences at the turn of the millennium, there's been a growing appreciation of Asia as the hotbed of the world's best horror movies. Over the last decade Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Hong Kong have all produced a steady stream of stylish supernatural thrillers and psychological chillers that have set new benchmarks for cinematic scares. Hollywood soon followed suit, producing high-profile remakes of films…
Tokyo Psycho
(2009)
I was given this movie by a friend who said "No one wants to watch this movie with me. Since you like Asian Horror you can have it." 'Okay,' I thought, 'this just has no one to watch it.' The product description on the back excited me. I was ready to love this movie. Unfortunately, it couldn't happen. This movie was terrible! Thinking back on it there is NOTHING I could say I liked about this movie, and it's the worst asian horror movie I have ever seen. Spitting…
The Eye
(2003)
Well Ill start by just saying the movie focused on once again what i love about asian thillers next to american is the story is very well done. Lots of jumpy parts and just a killer story line of which can only be found in asian folklore and untarnished by the american movie horror syndicates. Overall I gave it a 4 out of five because the story tended to drag a little and lost my attention for the most part. BUT I really like the story in a whole and thought is was very original and worth buying.…

I have to say this was one of the best Asian movies I have seen in a while.I like this movie because it left you to draw your own conclusion of what really happened.The movie is good from start to finish and it is so apparent what they are striving to make the viewer believe,but is it really the truth.You have to watch this movie with an open mind and explore the rhelm of possibilities.The movie is a flashback to a series of murders that take place on February 29th,where a serial killer is stalking…

Asian Extreme cinema is hot, and this book lays it out in all its gory glory.

Daughter of Darkness
(2001)
I feel like I should give this more stars, because I sincerely liked this movie, but my critical side says, "NO." This is the only DVD of the movie you can get, and despite the rating of Category III, it has VERY obviously been censored at several points. Two examples that readily come to mind are when she's stabbing her brother and when her father covers her with icing. They don't even try to hide the fact that it's censored, it's just, "First stab, cut to her…

KILLING CAR is one of Jean Rollin's most unusual films and is a real departure from the vampire theme for which he is best known, though it still maintains Rollin's signature mix of mysterious femmes fatales and female flesh.
