If you like that it's actually the worst of the 5 or 6 violent/Miike movies I own. Sorry, I'm a giant movie geek. I love City of God, Man Bites Dog, etc.... but these are the best Japanese movies I've run across:
- Suicide Club
- Gozu
- Visitor Q (sickest fucking movie ever made but awesome)
- Audition
- Ichi the Killer
Among others. I liked Battle but its not as good as the other five.
Suicide Club - groups of high school kids and adults alike are offing themselves for some unknown reason to do with a little girl singing group and the internet. A police captain and others are investigating and it gets sicker the deeper they go.
Gozu - A man's brother dies during a road rage accident through the country. His brother/friend (I forget) drives him to a small town and uses the bathroom... when he comes outside the body is gone. The movie revolves around him going through this fucked up little town trying to find him.
Visitor Q - Necrophilia, breast milk shooting.... I can't even.... it's actually a really good movie but it's not for the faint of heart. It's on Netflix.
Audition - A man's friend is a producer and holds secret auditions for a "movie part" (actually finding him a date) until he meets one girl that.... has some problems. Very funny and horribly violent.
Ichi the Killer - A Yakuza type hitman runs his group with an iron fist while trying to find his kidnapped mob boss. Except there's a man going around named Ichi and he's supposedly the most violent superior man in the history of man. Will they confront one another? Yes, yes they will. Bloodiest movie with awesome scenes, although not the best.
