I haven't seen any content creators cover this subject. This was interesting. Thanks. 😊
One of the few older movies that got to me this and henry portrait of a serial killer.
One very funny aspect of THE UNTOLD STORY is that Danny Lee's character has pretty girls with him in every scene, like he's some total Chad. This is because at the time in the tabloids there were a lot of gay rumours about him, so he thought' he'd crowbar this into the movie to 'prove' he's not gay.
I've actually been on a Herman Yau bender lately. The guy is incredible. He makes four movies a year, and most of them good.
Is Splatter Punk the film equivalent to Bizarro novels?
Untold Story is great. Also highly recommend Dr Lamb. Disturbing as hell.
Well, now I need to know your favorite Cat III movie!
RUN AND KILL is a cracker. It has one of 'those; scenes where you're like: "Ooof! Couldn't do THAT in an American movie...:" 😲
Most Cat III movies are so over the top they're more funny than disturbing. Kind of like A SERBIAN FILM.
For a long time since these extreme horror movies kind of died out, the rating has really only been used for Triad movies.
