Yes!
It felt like Straw dogs gone bad :)
very good.
One I really liked with him was Sean Penn's fragment in the 9/11 movie.

HANNA D- THE GIRL FROM VONDEL PARK (1984)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAdaXUP3dYg&feature=share

It's very similar of the most knowed Christian F (unfortunately never seen it). Not bad, maybe some bad elements and a clashing end but I enjoyed this movie. Drugs, lots of needls, gross and crude scenes and a livid and grey Amsterdam.

Have you seen "Sunday in the Country"? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075382/

I use to have a really cheap dvd of "Sunday in the Country" thought I'mnot sure that was the title but plot on imdb sounds like what I remember. My fave Borgnine films are The Wild Bunch, Emperor of the North, & The Devils Rain (got the paperback bk not too long ago). He's mean as hell in Emperor of the North!

Watched Bullhead last night. It's a Belgian crime film that starts out ok but sort of loses it about halfway through.

Saw Savages last week with the woman. Fucking terrible. Avoid at all costs.

FRIGHT from 1972 with Susan George looking pretty good in a short fuzzy purple dress, belt, stockings, & go-go boots. She plays a babysitter who gets harassed by a woman's ex-husband who escaped from the loony bin.

Unofficial Punisher short film. Theme of vigilante delivering justi... punishment, never gets old! I hope it encourages full length of something as fierce as this.

Spalovač mrtvol - The Cremator (1968) by Juraj Herz
Although not an "extreme" movie, it covers many subjects that could fit in this forum...

Haven't seen this one ... good suggestion! Grazie! Director Juraj Herz rings a bell, but I can't place him at the moment. 


I really liked his slightly surreal (more in tone than in actual plot) masterpiece Morgiana. I'd say in a somewhat Polanski-like manner. Really good. Stunning aesthetics.

And  speaking of "Valerie and her week of Wonders", one of my top ten favorites of all times. I watch it from time to time, never get tired of it. This is pure magic.

AMER- french film with heavy giallo influences. first section is interesting followed by boredom then picks up. Has all the cool colored lighting, odd camera angles, a straight razor with black gloves but no hats or J&B bottles. OK for a rental. Has the directors early short films in the extras. I watched 2 of the 5 or 6. One called "Catharsis" was interesting.

I thought it was visually impressive all the way through. It feels more like a stylistic exercise/hommage than anything else, so style is really all I need. I think the scene in the garden at night was really nice too, with the taxidriver and the razor on the teeth. Not something I'll watch that often, but it's been a while and I think I will watch it again soon. Don't think my edition had the short films though, too bad?

Seen quite a lot of lately. What's stuck at the top of my head - Latvian documentary Family Instinct . Though the subtitles were terrible, since Latvian language is similar to Lithuanian, it's possible to understand everything. So bleak, harsh and funny. Incest, alcohol, poverty and so on. True eastern european village. No wonder why it's called "Latvian Gummo". If someone is interested - drop me a line. I still haven't found the dvd of it to buy

The only time I see my favourite Winston whitering in front of another actor...

Ben Kinsgley's "No" scene is a complete masterpiece.

Absolutely, this short piece made "just for the fun of it" captures the essence of Ennis period in the Punisher series... Damn that the movie were just a fail... maybe it would have worked better as a tv series...

Considering how TV has seen a change in attitude to depictions of gore and sex lately I could definitely see Punisher being pulled of a successfull series. I think these endless running comics are much better suited for the tv-series format than movies (which might work for graphic novels, but most often don't). As long as it wouldn't end up as something so utterly crappy as "spartacus"

SWEET MOVIE (1974)
Provocative arthouse/exploitation film that like the earlier WR: MYSTERIES OF THE ORGANISM mixes found film, documentary footage, sex, violence, politics, art and taboos into a delirious cinematic spectacle. Could also be considered the unofficial blueprint for several (90s) perversion subcultures - WAM/sploshing, adult babies, full body enclosure, piss, shit, vomit, etc, etc...

It is something of a favourite here and while yes there is a whole lot of weird sex in there, the weird politics are pretty interesting too - there is I think real hatred for communism in there despite how things first appear. Unforgettable, bizarre, hugely thought-provoking, guaranteed to cause arguments about its meaning.

One of my favourite Phil Todd projects ANNA PLANETA was named after the boy-molesting character in this film. Double CD of entirely uncommercial improvised material using few real instruments recorded in abandoned orphanage with bats at night in the late 90s. Pretty much made BWCD go out of business!
