An absolute masterpiece of extreme filmmaking. Guaranteed to amaze, shock, disgust and intrigue in equal measure, 'Ichi the Killer' is one of the most striking films ever made. Unforgettable.
Horror
Black Christmas
Less 'Black Christmas' than 'Cack Christmas'. I wouldnt watch this again if you promised me a lifetime supply of selection boxes.

A totally unremarkable underwater creepfest.
Oodishon
A slow-burning psychological thriller that builds ominously and inexorably to its shocking pay-off and then leaves you squirming in your seat – but with enough subtlety and depth that for days afterwards you will be trying to pick up the pieces. 'Audition' is a meditative, melancholic masterpiece that is not for the squeamish.
The Shining
One of the horror genres finest, this isnt a film to watch if youre about to spend the winter alone. In a hotel. Full of ghosts. And axes.
The Nightmare Before Christmas
If theres a more wickedly funny, inventive and totally engrossing festive flick than this, Ive yet to see it. Tremendous.
