Audition (Ôdishon) (1999,  R)
Audition (Ôdishon)
Sooooooooooo slow until the last 20 minutes or so, then incredibly uncomfortable and disturbing, then it finishes. Riki riki riki riki riki!

Hadashi no Gen 2 (Barefoot Gen 2) (1986,  PG)

Battle Royale (Batoru Rowaiaru)
I love this movie. Don't think I'd survive very long in that situation, though
7
Batoru rowaiaru II: Chinkonka (Battle Royale II) (2003,  Unrated)
8
Chungking Express (1996,  PG-13)
Chungking Express
I was indifferent the first time I saw this movie, but felt compelled to give it 4 stars after another viewing. It's a really sweet film
9
Dark Water (2002,  PG-13)
Dark Water
I haven't seen the remake, but I'm insulted they made one, even if it was directed by Walter Salles. This is creepy, atmospheric and a marvellous horror film

Inhyeongsa (The Doll Master) (2004,  Unrated)
Inhyeongsa (The Doll Master)
schlocky, enjoyable. Freaked me out for a couple of days, as I seriously hate dolls. Could have been worse, they could have been ventriloquist dummies
11
The Eye (Gin gwai) (2002,  R)
The Eye (Gin gwai)
Good, if a little slow
12
The Eye 2 (Gin gwai 2) (2004,  R)

Awesome, a lot better than the first

Made me scared to go into public toilets.

The Happiness of the Katakuris (2001,  R)
The Happiness of the Katakuris
This was the first Takashi film I saw, and I immediately bought Audition and Visitor Q. Well, if you liked those two films, this is NOTHING like it. It's a thousand times better, for one thing
15

16
King of Beggars (1992,  Unrated)
17

Stephen Chow is a God. Like me, he obviously finds physical pain incredibly funny.

22
Ringu ( Ring) (1998,  Unrated)
23
Ringu 2 (2005,  Unrated)
Ringu 2
I really liked this, actually more than Ringu. The bit where they're all clambering out the well was chilling
24
Ringu 0 (2000,  Unrated)
Ringu 0
There's one bit in this film where sada jumps round a corner, and it's extremely inelegant and she looks very manly. I laughed quite hard, then when I went to bed that night I actually realised how bloody terrifying that one move was
25
Ring Virus (1999,  Unrated)
Ring Virus
Weird. Closer to the book than any others
26
