Audition

[Triple A]

OMG this is one of the craziest movies I have ever seen. I just came back from seeing it at an arthouse theater here and I am blown away. Might be the most FUCKED UP movie I have ever seen.

Plot: A lonely man whose wife passed away has a plan to find a new wife. He works in the film industry, so he holds a fake audition for a movie so that he can find a new wife out of the girls that come. He spots one young girl and immediately falls in love with her. However, he is warned there there is something suspicious about her and is unaware of her really messed up past.

This movie is seriously like HOLY SHIT. A bunch of people walked out of the theater during the final scene. I don't want to spoil anything, but it's one of the most disturbing movies ever. Such a mindfuck.

It's from 2000 and is available on DVD here in the US. Watch it, trust me.

[Mr. Nerfect]

It's supposed to have that disturbing rape scene isn't it? Sounds interesting. :y:

[Triple A]

Nah not rape. That is the movie, Irreversible.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Oh, yeah. That's what I siad......:shifty:

Thanks for clearing that up. I've found it for a good price, good you think it's worth a buy, or just a rent?

[Triple A]

Definitely worth a buy. I would buy it except it's already on hold at the library, so I will just burn it.

[Triple A]

Plus I doubt you will find it at Blockbuster or anywhere for rent really.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Oh OK, thanks. I'll get onto ordering it. :y:

[The Mackem]

Yeah well it's Japanese I'd be disappointed if it wasn't fucked up.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Gotta love Takeshi Miike. Him and Takeshi "Beat" Kitano are doing a movie called IZO, which is apparently their answer to Kill Bill. Apparently they thought it wasn't violent enough.

[Mr. Monday Morning]

Saw it on C4 a few months ago.

What the FUCK was up with that sack

[Triple A]

Yeah that was crazy shit. What's in it is revealed though, IF YOU REMEMBER CORRECTLY.

[Triple A]

Still thinking about this movie. Seriously one of the best movies I have ever seen.

[FakeLaser]

I must see this.

[Mr. Monday Morning]

Yeah that was crazy shit. What's in it is revealed though, IF YOU REMEMBER CORRECTLY.

Hmm...like I said was a few months ago...wait, was that the bit with the dog bowl?

Everything apart from the very end is a bit of a blur :o

[Triple A]

Yeah that was it.

[Jonster]

I've just ordered this.
It better be as good as it's been made out to be :rant:

[Triple A]

Where are you guys ordering it from?

And it is excellent. It might start off a bit slow (in your point of view), but it's well worth it. I thought it was great all around though. The movie just turns into a huge mindfuck. I love it.

[Jonster]

Got mine from www.play.com (http://www.play.com)

It's pretty cheap and free delivery.
It's lucky I saw this, because I'm in kind of an experimental mood with movies at the moment.

[Mr. Monday Morning]

It is an unbelievably fucked up film. It was being shown here on C4 as part of a horror season last Halloween I think, I was expecting something like Ringu, but Jesus Christ :|

[Downunder]

Gonna see if I can download it

[Lara Emily]

Loved it. Sooo amazingly fucked up and what's great is it's built up slowly. Hell the first half if not more is almost a cute love story then wham everything gets fucled up six ways from Sunday. It's fantastic.

[Downunder]

Can't find it :(

[El Vaquero de Infierno]

Aye, it's pretty fucked up.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Can't find it :(

I found mine on EzyDVD. They've got a pretty good selection. :y:

[Disturbed316]

Hang on, is this the film when *BLACK TEXT BELOW, ENDING SPOILERS*

At the end, she drugged him and strapped the guy down and cut off his ankle with cheese wire or something? And stuck needles and shit in him? But then he woke up and it was a dream or something or other?

If so, then I remember this film, very fucked up, but very good :y:

[Triple A]

Yeah that's the one, though you don't have all the details correct about <font color=black>the dream stuff</font>.

[Downunder]

I found mine on EzyDVD. They've got a pretty good selection. :y:I don't want to buy it I want to download it for free.

I don't have a DVD player.

[deathtrap]

lol, I've been trying to get everyone to see it in those 'recommend people films threads.'

Go see Ichi The Killer as well.

[deathtrap]

Didn't he (spoilers)<font color=black>get drugged to make him paralysed? I thought when he was dreaming about going down on the 3 girls, I think (was it Asami? I wasn't good with their names) was making him realsie that she wasn't the only girl in his life, which is what she kept asking him. The freakiest bit I thought was when when that guy with half a tongue and blindfolded came out of the bag to drink his own vomit</font>

Gonna watch it tonight again.

[Triple A]

Yeah I ordered Ichi The Killer off ebay after I saw this. Should be getting it soon.

[deathtrap]

Have you seen Battle Royale?

I've ordered it, but probably won'te be getting it for a few weeks.

[Triple A]

Yeah, it was alright. Not as good as I wanted it to be.

[Mr. Monday Morning]

Picked this up yesterday in a 2 for £20 sale along with Scarface :cool: Would've gotten Ichi the Killer in another store but they wanted £25 for the SE :|

[Jonster]

I've just watched it now.

Definately fucked up, but all that dream stuff really confused the hell out of me.

It was like a dream in a dream?

Only explanation I can think of, but then the bit at the very end made less sense.

[Triple A]

Yeah like some of it is and some of it isn't. Up to you to interpret I guess although I think the director said what was and what wasn't. All the torture stuff really happened though.

[deathtrap]

I liked how the kid just walked in and said "what happened"
