Wolf Creek (2005, R)
Probably the most tense film I've ever watched. The acting was so believable which made the situation frightening enough, but then wehn you take into account that it is based on true events, you realise what an amazing story it is. |

Antikörper (Antibodies) (2007, Unrated)
Antibodies really exceded my expectations on many levels. Firstly as a fictional story of a serial killer, this has to be the best one since ?The Silence of the Lambs?. It was controversial, made you feel uncomfortable in parts, it was casted well, especially in the case of the serial killer. |

Ghajini (2008, Unrated)
Much more than just a Bollywood version of ?Memento?, it offers a much more in depth background story which builds nicely to a revenge plot. The occasionally songs throughout the film were entertaining and fit well as do the soundtrack songs. |

In the Name of the Father (1993, R)
The tragic and touching tale of the wrongly imprisioned Guilford Four, plus others, is brought to life by Director Jim Sheridan, with a first class cast, led strongly by Daniel Day-Lewis and Pete Postlewaite. |

A work of pure genious!!! |

Dancehall Queen (1997, Unrated) |

Audition (Ôdishon) (1999, R)
Possibly my favourite to date of Takashi Miike's work. It appears to be quite a predictable film, but with this Director you know there is always going to be something a little bizarre, it also has it's fair share of gore. |

Night Watch (Nochnoi Dozor) (2006, R)
My first Russian film! This one seemed to come well recommended. A very modern day vampire style film, capturing a very different angle to others. I did lose the storyline a bit toward the end, but have to say the effects were terrific, not constant throughout the film, but impressive when they appear. |

El Laberinto del Fauno (Pan's Labyrinth) (2006, R) |

Låt den Rätte Komma In (Let the Right One in) (2008, R)
I have to admit I watched this film, knowing nothing about it at all and had I known it was a vampire film, perhaps I wouldn?t have watched it with the same enthusiasm, however this is the most naturally acted Vampire film that I?ve seen to date. |

Ong-Bak (Ong Bak: Muay Thai Warrior) (2005, R)
Probably the best Martial Arts film ever made. With huge fight scenes, stunning choreography and comical chase scenes. |
|
| 19 |
GoodFellas (1990, R)
One of the greatest films ever made, Ray Liotta makes his role of a lifetime appearance leading a star cast of unfaulted actors in Scorsese's masterpiece. |
