Unglorious Basterds , USA, 2008 ☆☆☆☆☆

Violent as any Tarantino film, this one turns a horrible history episode into an entertaining piece of fiction. One of Tarantino's best movies if you ask me. The only thing that bothered me was the little Western background music that would somtimes pop up. That is really out of place considering the story being told, but it is becoming one of Tarantino's musical traits.

The Stepford Wives , USA, 1975 ☆☆

The original Stepford Wives is far more creepy and psychological. You will find no funny scenes here, only a very dark secret that is revealed at the very end. The movie is a little too long for what it's about, but still is able to deliver some chills.

C'est Arrivé Près de Chez Vous , Belgium, 1994 ☆☆☆

A fake documentary about a serial killer that looks like a comedy but it's quite disturbing at the same time. In black & white.

Terribly Happy Frygtelig lykkelig, Denmark, 2008 ☆☆☆☆

Marie Antoinette USA, 2006 ☆☆☆

Cherry Blossoms Germany, 2008 ☆☆☆☆

A man never had time to tell her wife how much he loved her. Wife dies suddenly. Husband decides to visit his only single son who is working in Tokyo. The husband also finds out that his wife loved traditional Japanese dance. When he meets a steet dancer in Tokyo, both embark on a friendship that will lead the man to reconcile his feelins and finally say goodbye to her wife.
Forget "Lost In Translation", this movie is the real deal if you want to explore the concept of West meets East. A truly amazing movie.

Let's Scare Jessica To Death USA, 1971 ☆☆☆☆

Jessica and her husband decide to go live in the countryside and escape from the city life. Pretty early on in the movie we learn that Jessica just came out of the psychiatric hospital. She hears voices and sees people that are not there. Her troubled mind starts playing games with her as she starts to hear voices that tell her that they will never leave her alone. In addition to this, when she and her boyfriend get to the new house they just bought, a stranger was already living there without permission.
The title of the movie is very deceiving, but that is part of the whole scheme. Is someone trying to scare her? Does she really hear voices? or is the local legend true and ghosts are really appearing? For a movie that is more than 30 years old, it still is pretty scary. Good job.

Pusher Denmark, 1996 ☆☆☆☆

A Danish crime and mafia movie about a "pusher" trying desperately to get 230,000 Crowns to pay for a deal gone wrong. It's crude, realistic, and a lot of fun to watch.

The Wrestler USA, 2008 ☆☆☆

The dramatic downfall of a famous American wrestler, not only professionally, but personally. The story is simple, the performances are incredible. This is a 180 degree change of style for director Aronofsky.

In 3 Days In Drei Tage Bist du Tot, Germany, 2007 ☆☆☆

When Austrians decide to make a horror movie, the end result is usually quite convincing. This is a perfect example of a movie that seems quite mainstream at first glance, ends up being an original shocker.

Adoration Canada, 2008 ☆☆☆

The latest movie from Atom Egoyan explores the many faces of guilt, terrorism and repression. Again, a family drama is the central point of departure for a series of sociological subjects that Egoyan explores in detail in this latest drama.
