Anyone ever see this movie? Probably one of the best foreign films.

I did, very disturbing, I loved it, what would you do after being locked up for many years?
Very strange movie and not very well known.
I give it 5 stars.

It is currently being remade in America (why do they have to ruin every good asian release??)

But, I watched this with my fiance, and we kinda sat there for most of the movie wonderering what the hell is going on... But it was well worth the patience. The special effects were impressive, and not too ott, and the acting was superb.

The fight scenes were brilliant! When he took on a gang of thugs, and it was one scene down a long corridor - excellent fun!

The end twist was a complete surprise, and also a little sick, but as a Miike fan I can deal with that. I just wonder how the Americans will deal with a storyline like that O.o

An American remake, nooooooooo!
That sux, I wish they would leave good movies alone, I don't think most Americans can enjoy a good bloody and sick movie.
Oh my god the fight scene in the corridor amazing and brutal.
I don't like most remakes, there are too many of them.
