Sticking with what seems to be this month's theme of excessively gory Asian horror movies; the biscuit is awarded to and allowed to be taken away by Samurai Princess (Samurai purinsesu: Gedô-hime).

Having heard nothing but condemnation for the work of Uwe Boll and being uninitiated in his perception of art, Seed was quite an unpleasantly shocking yet pleasantly disturbing surprise. There is no doubt that this movie was created just to inspire media hysteria and if the media cared about the wor...

Severance is an effective British comedy-slasher with a star studded cast of British actors providing a typical wit dryer than a vagina in a nunnery.

It's not usual that a Samurai movie would be reviewed on this site but Shogun Assassin (known in Japan as Kozure Okami) is here for two reasons. Number one is that this movie made the notorious Video Nasty list in the UK and number two is the plentiful amount of blood and violence. One of the movies...

Hisayasu Sato's notorious sex & gore masterpiece
Posted on 07/27/2008 by Horror Extreme
It's not often that a horror movie shocks and appalls me but Japanese director Hisayasu Sato managed to do so with his enticingly titled movie Splatter: Naked Blood (Nekeddo burâddo: Megyaku). Although the effects are not entirely convincing Sato is not afraid to subject the viewer to some close-up,...

Not only is Suicide Club (Suicide Circle) a highly original and innovative slice of Asian cinema it also has, in my opinion, the best opening scene in any horror movie ever! There is plenty of blood and gore (most of which is in the first five minutes), the usual confusing-to-Westerners storyline an...
