The Crab Cannery Ship – Review
Why does a novel about exploited workers on a crab cannery boat, published 80 years ago by a young communist writer, become a hot movie property now? Well, Crab Cannery Ship plays more as exercise than drama. All in all, this is a very interesting film, but not necessarily a good one, if that makes sense. Click to read the full review...
Black Samurai – Review
Black Samurai with production value as terrible as it is, definitely ranks up there with the most entertaining movies I've ever seen. I laughed so hard at times, I nearly cried. Either they were doing this tongue in cheek, or it was complete schlock, it ranks as mediocre, yet it's a keeper. Click to read my full review of this 70's action flick starring Jim Kelly...
Dasepo Naughty Girls – Review
Dasepo Naughty Girls is a film that has an exterior of a wacky sexy romp. The film is a kaleidoscope of dumb sex jokes, visual humor, and storylines that involve a principal possessed by a mythical monster who espouses the virtue of virginity to the students of the high school. Yeah, it's dumb. How dumb? Click to read my full review...
Dynamite Warrior – Review
Dynamite Warrior attempts to blend the Muay Thai fighting system with a generous amount of special effects, wire work and a hint of mysticism. Just don't make the mistake of expecting another Ong-Bak like I did. It is another film about a young man on a quest for vengeance against the man that killed his parents. Click to see if this film is anything but unoriginal in my full review...
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky – Review
I won't get into plot or expand upon characters, but what I will say is this movie has the joy of being in a very small category of films that are 'so bad, they are actually good'. Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky is probably one of the most comically gonzo, graphically gory features I've seen. Click to read the full review in all its bloody glory...
Soundless Wind Chime – Review
Soundless Wind Chime is the story of Ricky who leaves Hong Kong for Switzerland to find the lost soul and the past of his dead lover, Pascal. Director Hung has apparently been working on the film for five years, and it shows, however at close to 2 hours long, the movie still manages to oversimplify some of the details of the relationship.

Merantau Warrior – Review
It’s being touted as the “Biggest Indonesian action movie of the year”. I can't say I disagree with that statement. Merantau Warrior is the Indonesian answer to Ong Bak and features some of the best fighting and action set pieces you will ever see. Click to read full review and check out a clip of one of the many amazing fight scenes...
She, a Chinese – Review
She, A Chinese is divided into a lengthy list of chapters that so many other character pieces revolve around which depict the slow exposure of a someone’s flaws. It doesn't do anything new but does keep things interesting. This is an engaging, impressively directed yet lazily acted which is good enough for a passing grade. Click to read the full review...
Gravity’s Clowns – Review
The plot is definetely adult orientated and tackles some pretty strong themes. For what the script demands from them, however, the actors do a terrific job. Gravity's Clowns is a haunting tale about a Japanese family where a current series of graffiti events paves the way to unraveling an unexpected family truth. This is one of the best mystery films I have seen in recent years. Click to find out why...
Battlefield Baseball – Review
Battlefield Baseball follows the Seido High School baseball team as they must face their rivals at Gedo High, a team made up entirely of zombies. Most of the gags in this movie are totally unnecessary, the characters are terrible, the plot is worse. In short, best movie ever! Click to read the full review of this bizarre Japanese flick...
