A place for lovers of B movies to come together and talk about them.

Rules:

  1. Be most excellent to one another. (Don't be a jerk)
  2. Try not to repost movies that have already been posted. (If it has been over 12 months feel free to repost)
  3. If posting links for people to watch the movies let them be legal ones. (Free is best but not when it's shady, you dig?)
  4. Have fun and enjoy all the awesomeness that B movies can bring you.

The line "there's no love in your pain" changed my life.

It was one of the first foreign movies I ever got into after being a huge Anime fan for a few years. Think i started watching them around 2004. I think it was Oldboy, then this. I never turned back.

I remember writing an essay on this movie for English part of high school exit exams 20 years ago. Got 96/100 points which is about how I would rate this movie as well.

Just got to see a Halloween screening of this! Absolutely batshit movie with a terrific wardrobe.

Manga is way better, read all of it in the past, extremely crude but shows how unhinged and savage lowlifes are, no sugar coating.
