Tokyo Drifter 1966
A neon, candy-colored whirlwind of violence and nihilism. An assault on the rigid structures of the past, both in its form and its (very twisty) plot. No fewer than three characters try to step out of the world of the yakuza, seemingly for reasons that have less to do with morality than with breaking free of rules and structure. The characters have varying degrees of success with this break, but director Seijun Suzuki is 100% successful in creating something that smashed through the expectations of genre, and became something entirely new.

The Hateful Eight 2015
In December of 2015, the remake of "Star Wars" is like a high-dollar but illicit massage parlor, all pleasant smells, gentle tickles, and "surprises" that only a virgin wouldn't have known were in store.
"The Hateful Eight" is a stink bomb tossed through the window of that massage parlor; raw, awkward, uncomfortable cinema that asks questions you may not want to answer. It's the 3-hour, booze fueled and highly emotional debate, versus the "Star Wars" 2-hour gentle handjob.
