i reckon this mystery JJ Abrams thing is a remake of The Host

always found R Point quite chilling - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0417072/

loses its way towards the end but its quite good

Pretty much anything by Chan-Wook Park is brilliant. He's definitely one of the best filmmakers around today.

Not a horror or scifi per se, but a really good (korean) film is
Memories of Murder (Trailer).

Another really good korean film is Infernal Affairs (Trailer)

Any film called 'Hidden Floor' is instantly amazing in my eyes!! :D


Big up asian cinema, dunt know where its heading recently, gettin a congested and repetitive but a few years ago it was smashing it!! Fresh new vibes!
I only smoke weed when I need to,
And I need to get some rest,
I confess, I burnt a hole in the mattress,
Yes, yes, it was me, I plead guilty
I cant get no sleep

Oldboy was great.
