has anyone else seen Natural City? it's a Korean movie, basically it's just a Korean version of Blade Runner but i thought it was a dope movie.

It's a good introduction to that gritty no holds barred Korean genre but there are bitter films once you get into it. The Chaser is the GOAT Korean Film.

Of course there are classics like Oldboy (KOR) and Pan's Labrynth (MEX)

But I'm not seeing The Host (KOR) on any list. Its a 2006 giant monster flick by the dude who did Snowpiercer.
Don't Sleep.

You can fill the rest up with Tinto Brass Films (ITA)

Nobody's sleeping on Bong Joon-Ho on this board, if they do I'll wake them the fukk up. But none of the movies he did are top 10 of all time to me, even if he represents some of the best that Korean cinema has to offer.

So much wrong with this post it's sad

 

[FlyRy]

Just peeped Solaris
Might have to add it to my list

My 4th foreign flick since the thread started.

It would have been better if @StraxStrax didn't pull a full time jack move and gave us only 10 days with turkey day and black fri in between

But I stand by that these lists and watching are more fun than the movie club was
