Thanks! Those are all great movies, but I worry about adding some of them given that this is a conservative site! I did add Oldboy with a cautionary warning. Ichi the Killer and Audition might be too much. LOL! But, yeah, they are great if you like over-the-top films. Ong Bak is a trip, that's for sure. I could probably add it. The Bird People in China could be added. It's beautiful (well, other than the scene where the Yakuza guy gets sick) and something really different from Miike. The location photography is off-the-charts and the ending is awesome! Congratuations on being familiar with that film. Even a lot of people who know Miike's work aren't familiar with that one! Have you seen Happiness of the Katakuris?

Maybe I could add a "special warning" section for films like Save the Green Planet and the ones you listed!
