    What movie is this? (WAS: Dont remeber...)

    umm im not sure where to put this, so i'll just ask here.

    i have a problem
    i dont know what the first asian "scary" movie i ever saw was.:shake:

    it was sent on tv here(norway) umm 5-6 years ago atlest. but i dont know how old it realy is

    i think it was chinese but im not sure.

    umm a gost girl dressed i white, an evil aunt whit an extreamly long tounge, some other ghost girls that were evil.
    the girl in white lured people to the rest of the monsters and had sex whit them before the others killed them. ther was something abouth small bells but im not sure.
    she could make the sleeves of her dress grow realy long and catch people by them.

    they lived in a house high above the ground, it stood on realy tall wood colums.

    the hero was a guy whit a sword, and he bought a painting that was a pic of the ghost girl

    Movie Search

    Hi there
    I have a bit of a vague request for the name of a movie but all I can remember from the trailer is a woman (maybe a witch) who's head splits open and her hair flies wildly up in the air. I also remember a blue background with light shining behind her..I know a bit rubbish arent I but I remember it looking really good.
    Any tips would be gratefully received.:help:

    The post was moved to this thread not because Chinese Ghost Story was the answer, but that this is the "what movie is this? Here's what I remember..." thread.

    The movie you're talking about sounds a bit like Eko Eko Azarak, the one with Miho Kanno. I can't remember which one it is, so you'll have to look it up yourself. I believe they had an animated .gif of Kanno's head splitting open on the Japanese Yahoogroup front page for a long time, so I'm guessing that is what you're talking about.

    Now that you mention it, Mandi, it does sound a lot like the first Eko Eko Azarak movie - Wizard Of Darkness. If I'm not mistaken the background in that particular scene is blue, and there is very bright light too. :-P

    need helping identifying this movie! please help!

    i'm looking for the name of this famous 80's japanese movie ( well, i was told that it was a japanese film from the 80's)


    its about two lovers who were both cutters. the girl would ask her bf if she can cut him b/c she likes to see blood, so he lets her. then she asks him to cut her. so on. then in the end. they've cut each up so much that she killed him. then she killed herself. the movie's basically about how two people in love are really passionated about each other and act upon that in everyway possible. even in sick twisted ways.

    does anyone know the name of this movie? i really need someone who can help me identify this movie, and also. where can i purchase it?



    thanks a lot in advance!

    Hmm... that you say it's from the 80's and famous makes me suspect you're thinking of In the Realm of Senses (1976.. close enough) But a problem is that there weren't much cutting in it apart from the ending if I recall correctly. But there was a lot of stuff going on so I may have forgot that part. Or the plot may have been distorted by a chain of retellings until it reached you (like that old children's game).. Otherwise your description fits the film.

    Now I'm no expert in this kind of films, so hopefully somebody more knowledgeable can chime in. Maybe one of the "sequels" to In the Realm of Senses - I think there were one or two. Not as famous, though.

    Good luck!
  11. Mandi Apple The Acid Queen

    The problem with that is that Abe Sada doesn't kill herself in the end of Ai no corrida that I'm aware of...? Certainly none of my reading would suggest so, but I can't think of anything that sounds even like it since Japanese movies in the 80s (maybe with the exception of Nikkatsu and romanp0rno/pink) were pretty heavily censored, so I'd suggest it was something a bit more underground - apart from damnalky's assertion that it's famous... :dizzy:
  12. gwyddon Rusting the world!

    Hm, good point. It's a long time since I saw Ai no Corrida (and frankly, I wish I hadn't..) and now I only recall that the film didn't end the same way as reality did. But I can't remember quite just how it ended - my mind is a blank after the penis cutting scene.. Most men probably have the same reaction :lol:
  13. Midori no Saru Invoker of Azarak

    I'd like to know how this film, and imported uncut :!: versions of it, will fare after the UK government have had their way...
  14. Mandi Apple The Acid Queen

    Ugh, I know - hot on the heels of the damn US Government's pr0n ruling, it does concern me that we're going to be doing exactly the same thing (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4195332.stm) :(

    I'm hoping they will only be targeting the actual pr0n sites and not entertainment sites, otherwise SA might have to change its subtitle from Asian Extreme Cinema to Happy Daisies and Chirpy Birdies Sunshine Cinema :(

    Anyway, I honestly can't comment about Ai no corrida since I've not actually seen it, I just thought it had a different ending to what was described, and other than that I have no clue. This sounds more like something sxesven might recognise than me, TBH, since he's our resident gore expert...
  15. sxesven Viva Last Blues

    It does sound gorey (and worth checking out if anyone comes up with the title), but I'm afraid I haven't seen it - I haven't even heard of such a movie, to be honest (and I've seen/read about quite a lot). I'll search around for a bit though and see if I can come up with something.
  16. gwyddon Rusting the world!

    Okay, if sxesven hasn't heard of it then I lean towards my first theory that it's a very mutilated retelling of In the Realm of Senses. It's famous. It's got a lot of sex. It's got crazy destructive sex. It's got a bloody ending(OK, only for one of the two..). It's from roughly the right timeframe. Most puzzle pieces fits..

    But I guess the original poster actually wants knives being used instead of mere strangulation.. so my suggestion isn't much of a help. Good luck finding it or some substitute.
  17. Mandi Apple The Acid Queen

    Oh, it probably is, but it was the knives and the ending things that baffled me too :lol: I'm stumped, and if sxesven doesn't know it then I'm really lost for ideas :lol:
  18. Yani The Observer

    Yeah, I also think it sounds like In the Realm of Senses.
  19. sxesven Viva Last Blues

    :lol:

    As for it possibly being Ai No Corrida, well, maybe then, but from what I've read about it, I can't remember it being about two people cutting one another (then again, the movie we're looking for surely doesn't revolve just around people cutting one another - a darn shame, that :snigger: ). There's a huge synopsis on Ai No Corrida in Eros In Hell by Jack Hunter, taking up an entire chapter even. It's quite pretentious and, frankly, booooring, so I'm too lazy to read through it all the way now. It does, however, mention 'knives' and 'steel' at some points, so eh, maybe it is Ai No Corrida then.

    Plus, the (in)famous Ai No Corrida still that was even used for a death-metal/grindcore compilation on Relapse Records does feature a knife.

    So eh.

    Well, knives.
