Thats a good interview, Damn would love to be at that filmfest

. Seen you got a scene from Wolf Creek, very good film.

I did like the following question and answer [Edited]:

Q: What are the major differences between the Asian films and the American films you are showing?

MS: The American movies we show are far more violent than our Asian films. Take the American slasher-genre for example. You will barely get to see such graphic violence in an Asian film. Of course there are exceptions, but you will never see movies like The Descent or The Devil’s Rejects coming from Asia in which gore is so graphically displayed..... (continue)

Yeah that is true, however what about Mr Lamb (HK), Nightmare (Korea), Ichi or Versus (Japan) (of course it may be that its a niche market in HK, Korea, Japan or India)

Greats stuff LD

Thanks for reading and commenting, slasher.

...however what about Mr Lamb (HK), Nightmare (Korea), Ichi or Versus (Japan)

I guess that's why he somewhere says "Of course there are a few exceptions."
