Asian films
I know this isn't supposed to be a list of decent movies type of thing, but I'm pished and saving my actual answer til I'm sober. Besides, I used the "Best Books" question to pick out some future reading material and so far I'm happy. Asian films had a bit of a heyday a couple of years ago. There were many fine examples and these were a few of the best I've seen, although there are others I've forgotten.... have a look if you like that sort of thingy

Ring series of course..... ring two is the only film to make me pull the covers over my face since I became a non-child. Hair-combingly good.

Brotherhood is an epic if a little overstated Korean war film.... a bit like a cross between Saving Private Ryan and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon... overdramatic but cool.

Visitor Q...... Oh my God. I can't explain this film. Just..... odd. Milky.

Old Boy. Just awesome. This has the best fight sequence I have ever seen in a movie. Heard they were remaking this with Nicholas Cage..... which should work out about as good as the Wicker Man did. Part of the Vengeance Trilogy, though I haven't seen the other 2 so I can't comment on them.

Ichi the Killer. What Superheros should be.

R-Point. Weird vietnam war horror film, eerie.

Shutter, The Eye, A tale of two sisters..... horrors in the vein of Ringu and The Grudge.

Gozu. My God in Heaven, Gozu. I can't even begin to start explaining this. if you like weirdness, try Gozu and Visitor Q. Oh and The Audition. Limbtastic.

Versus.... wierd sort of samurai zombie movie. And..... oh shit what was it called? Well it had a weird name and it was about a guy in a metal suit. I couldn't follow it.

Erm. Yes. Sorry. I'll go away now. :P

damn straight
oh yesh, Visitor Q, Ring Trilogy, Ichi, Old Boy & the Babycarts - quality viewing there mate. Have you seen the Tetsuo films? Iron Man & Bodyhammer. I thought I was pissed when watching the first one. Extreme bizzare. I also really like Ricky O (ok not Japanese but still very entertaining)

you might have seen it already
but i recommend a film called "the happiness of the katakuras". if you liked visitor Q then you'll probably like this. it's by no means as weird but it is very very funny imo.

not bad for a musical :)

Cashern?
I couldn't follow it either. I thought it was a bit rubbish as soon as it ended, but then I realised it had burrowed under my skin. Weird.
