I was to watch this at this year's Fantasy Filmfest, but had to pass it, because I had work that day... if there is one film I regret not to have watched, it must be this one. I'd watch it solely for the Miike cameo, he he he!
Salaam thelostdragon, Ramadaan mubarak to you as well. Hope you are fasting . When did you start, for me, it was announce to start on Tuesday for fasting.
Yeah i have had great things from people who went to see it on Frightfest. Heard about Miike cameo as the neighbour or something.
There seems to be two versions on the dvd, the standard version does not say if its a director's cut, only like premium box above say.
But word on the street is that the movie is pretty disappointing. Supposedly it drags quite a lot... one or two cool bits... but overall not that great.
That's just based on a few opinions I heard.
Sounds risky... perhaps wait for a cheaper release instead of risking it?
