wince-inducing Japanese movies

Have you seen Audition? It's by Takashi Miike. Not only did it make us wince, we basically, uh, begged for mercy.

no but i have seen Visitor Q by the same director...actually Jacques had rented both at once from Black Lodge but i only had the chance to see the one...he said Visitor Q was better...and while not really wince-inducing, pretty cool (well, it'd prob'ly make a lot of ppl wince...it's not really gorey, but really fucked-up)...but to its credit, Naked Blood had a cactus wearing a v.r. helmet...i love the japanese...

i loved audition, and i actually wasn't cringing as much as i thought i would during the last scene. miike is fucking rad.

semi-unrelated: have you seen any of the ring movies? because they fucking rule...
