Takeshi Miike, as you might know, is most famous in our hemisphere for movies like Ichi the Killer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrpMrSvIOpE)

Ichi is insanely, some say beautifully, violent. But it's nothing like the Hollywood sado-horror, sadism for the sake of sadism. Saw I couldn't stomach watching. Miike's the Charlie Chaplin of Japanese cinema.

I don't know. I'm a fan of Miike but "Ichi" was over the top - tinear 11:52:24 11/02/07 (2)
for me.
Rainy Dog and Audition were fantastic and probably good starting points before an "Ichi" try-out.

  I am not going to remind my wife of those, as she screens the list! :(

    Ichi wasn't so much a recommendation. But it is one of the movies most people in our part of the world associate with Miike.
