The Board is Down with no repair ETR. My apologies but we don't have the money or resources to repair the issue. It is broken on the back-end and is only here to view as an archive. Thank you for your years of patronage.
This is the place to discuss Asian films from all areas and genres! From The Seven Samurai to Battle Royale, from Matango to Gunhed.....let the discussion begin!
It's amazing how this film broke out to such an extent in the US. It feels like anyone into cult or genre movies knows of it now, and in my experience I've turned several people onto it who have in turn turned others onto it.
This is a movie on my re-watch list. I wasn't crazy about it the first time, but I'm more curious to watch it again having learned more about it and its production...maybe give me a new perspective.
There's a danger of illuminating the opaque in art, but I found the behind the scenes feature on Criterion's release super interesting, and enhanced my appreciation for the film.
