Default what? oh yeah i finally saw Koroshiya 1.... THAT MEANS ICHI THE KILLER!

what a hiliarously odd film. i've (unfortunately) only seen two Miike films before, Oodishon and Full Metal Gokudo. the Sato guy who adapted Ichi for screen plays a character in Kill Bill Vol 1. hah. anyway. uh. i can't believe so many people on imdb think this is just mindless violence. it was awesome. now i'm going to watch the other 50 films he's directed.

oh yeah, also, the soundtrack was awesome.

ICHI THE KILLER has the distinction of being the only film I've ever given a grade of "0" to at my website. (I would give it a "0" here, but alas that's not one of the options.) It is, as the subject line states, a snuff film for little boys too afraid, or are unable to, buy actual snuff films.

There's no inherent value in ICHI except to suck out your soul and spit it back in your face. There's not even anything remotely entertaining here. No gore for mindless enjoyment.

I'm not surprised at all that so many people have rated this film a perfect "10". Kids who don't know better believes making a movie without a purpose except to show gruesome and realistic murders is "groovy and cool". I'm only in my '20s myself, but I still have my soul intact, thus I am unable to "appreciate" this film.

Needless to say, I've never been more proud of my inability to "get" a film in my life.

0 out of 10
He didn't like it
Well, i did.

yeah. there's two versions of the subs that i saw, one was awful and one was pretty decent. i haven't watched the entire movie though because i don't like watching movies at my computer as much and it's such a pain to convert AVI to VCD.

I saw Audition (Oodishon) as well along with Goku.

They were all okay but he is a bit overrated as a director, people lust for blood. I have no problem with it but at least have a very interesting storyline. All films get a 5/10.

You should see all of his movies! Here are the ones I've seen and/or own:

Ichi the Killer- a classic!
Dead or Alive- DON'T rent a rated version of this movie.
Dead or Alive 2- uh. Sho Aikawa is cool.
City of Lost Souls- Maybe the most mainstream Miike movie I've seen. Decent.
Happiness of the Katakuris- Richard! Best character ever!
Audition- Eh. You know.
Bird People in China- No violence actually... a very mellow movie and kinda sweet.
Gozu- One of my favorites. Surrealism rules.
Deadly Outlaw: Rekka- Probably the only Miike movie I didn't really care for. Being a bootleg ripped from VHS didn't help things.
Fudoh: The Next Generation- SEE THIS MOVIE.
Full Metal Goduko- Is it really rape if you just killed her?
Tennen Shojo Man: Next- I haven't been able to watch this yet. School girls and fighting and vampires. Might be a trashy Japanese version of Buffy.

There's a couple I'm going to buy soon:

Rainy Dog
Visitor Q
Graveyard of Honor

The best place to get his movies is still ebay. CHEAP Ryan Patrick. You can't be that goddamn poor.
