I finally just finished watching Ichi the Killer(when you are sick you have time to catch up on movies) I was not as impressed as I was with it as I was Audition. Audition is a bit slow but the build up for the final is amazing and well done. Audition is only 1:50 or so and it felt pretty quick while Ichi on the other hand is 2:08 and felt like 100. I was just waiting for it to end. Yes there is gore and all the goodies you look for in a Takeshi Miike's film but wow...bleh! plot was boring, build up was way too slow, lame characters especially Ichi.

I was surfing around IMDB today and got together quite a list of movies to watch. Anyone suggest any others in the same ball park as Audition?
