Letterboxd — Your life in film

This has a really interesting premise, and how they built the mystery in the opening minutes is so damn effective. Then comes the impressive 8 mins oner and it just flows nicely, naturally. Also genuinely enjoying this especially on the first act, where everyone making deadpan jokes while maintaining their serious facial expressions. The directors were really successful on building our curiosity and developing the chemistry between the two main casts. Everything was smartly written and well directed on the…

A sequel that is much bigger than the original, and I appreciated it as it tried to be wildly different : a whole thirteen story apartment haunted by ghosts (after this and the Raid, foreigner would think why people in Indonesia rather live in landed houses than on tall buildings). Also adore the production value : the cinematography here is looking brilliant - there are some homages to the influential ones and it clearly shows Joko’s wide range of library,…

Lucky that I still got to watch this in nearby cinema. This is that movie where Park Chan Wook situated in a big dilemma, you could sense that his core objective initially could be to present us a pure romance story as he might try something out of his comfort zone. But then it’s Park Chan Wook being Park Chan Wook, all being twisted into a tale of investigation where it has mini-surprises for each section of the story, then…

This is that movie that will make your jaw dropped, overwhelmed because of excessive sensory overload of fucked-up imageries and how the movie gradually pushed the offensive limit to be always in the border of crossing the line (actually crossed several times). I was dazzled, and almost believed that this movie made by devils themselves given this approved and highly financed to be made as a lengthy feature film. Was I exaggerating? Nope, go see any other people’s reviews.

But…

Yo what if I tell you the scariest villain of all horror-slashers is not Leatherface, Jason Voorhees nor even Ghostface? But instead a teenage bully from rural town of England named Brett?

Anyway an effective, straightforward little horror story. The gore part has some weight to it, and the violence made by, and onto teens are disturbingly scary. I really like the little touch that is chemistry built between the main characters are established well on the first 20 mins,…

I always thought that the guy in the poster was Ichi all the time.. turned out it's not him😑

Started pretty interesting with all the dreamlike transitions and unnecessary gore, then really couldn't take on the excessive violence against women that a bit too much on the explorative side. Then the last 30 minutes I was losing the interest I was fell asleep several times during the final sequence. It was a fantastically brutal horror showcase, yet in the same…

Pretty sure I've watched this movie before, yet I couldn't remember any single scene from the previous watch. That's make it unmemorable, maybe because how generic looking and how tame it is. The original music is good but not all representing the era. Thing that bump this thousand folds to be more than a decent rated movie, is that because it resonated very well to me. Making band, play some gigs, and making friends in the scene thrown me back…
