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)

I thought Oldboy was wicked, as was Sympathy for Lady Vengeance.

Working title is "cloverfield"

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

Oldboy was great.
That's a scientific fact.
