List by birro
Weird and Wonderful Cinema from the Far East
Lazerbeams, Wormpuking, Black Magic, Hopping Vampires, Magic, Breathtaking Kung Fu (both Magic Fu and Crazy Kung Fu), Gigant Monsters busting it out and even Living Ginseng Roots...
An "All You Can Eat" package of weird and wonderful cinema from the far east!
The direction of the list is nutty fantasy, gruesome horror and eyepopping special effects (partly a checklist for me so things can change)
great list man!
hey thx! looking good so far, ill try arrange it so it makes a bit more sense. Like putting similiar films next to each other/after country etc. It's a work in progress
Thank you so much for this list. It's pure gold.
This is one of the most colorful lists on here by far. I have no idea what I am looking at, but by god I love it so much.
And thanks for reminding me that I need to seek out more of this fucked up Eastern stuff (Letterboxd sarcastically tells me that I have seen "0% of these films.)
Brilliant!
Appreciate that ashbeks!
If you look for some place to start id suggest The Boxers Omen + Mystics in Bali. Sure they are among the more known on here, but for a good reason. If you end up liking them im sure they will lead to checking more stuff out.
I'm usually slacking on reviewing stuff but i've added some to The Demons in Flame Mountain, Imperial Sword Crouching DEvil and Ghost of Guts Eater.
Holy crap, thanks for this list it looks fantastic. 0% here too although I've seen Mr Vampire. Looks like The Boxers Omen is next.
Simbelm - Boxer's Omen sure is a wild ride (or call it whatever you want - entertainment is guaranteed!).
I might look to add Mr. Vampire to the list later on, i've seen it aswell but didn't quite enjoy it. I kinda wanna disregard that as a criteria tho for the broadness of the list (but currently i'm just thinking wheter it fits in or not). I haven't fully conceptualised the direction of the list either as i think in some sences it's to broad and some it's not. It's a future project tho.
Let me know if/when your looking for more recommendations.
Nice list,watched a lot of these but there's still many to hunt down. ;)
Thx! Nice to hear someone have seen a bunch. I'm hooked on these kinds of films, especially the ones with black magic & laserbeams or just wicked effects in general.
Here's a good one I didn't notice in your list:
Demon of the Lute
Added, also threw in Spirit of the Raped
Awesome list!
Thx once again!
also added to the list Holy Flame of the Martial World
