Just wondered if anyone here's seen the Japanese horror(?) movie <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0312843/?fr=c2l0ZT1kZnx0dD0xfGZiPXV8cG49MHxrdz0xfHE9c3VpY2lkZSBjaXJjbGV8ZnQ9MXxteD0yMHxsbT01MDB8Y289MXxodG1sPTF8bm09MQ__;fc=1;ft=23">Jisatsu saakuru</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> AKA 'Suicide Circle' or 'Suicide Club' in English.<br><br>Really mysterious and strange film, with a lot of mind control weirdness implied but not over-explained. Some really chilling moments involving secret messages in pop culture. And a very odd musical sequence! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Definitely not for the faint-hearted, contains some really over the top gore scenes and creepy stuff, and I guess may be 'triggering' tho I don't really know much about that stuff...?<br><br>Much better and more disturbing than 'The Ring' or others in the new wave of Japanese Horror in my opinion. But definitely not for everyone, much more lynchian and mysterious than the usual horror film.<br><br>Just thought I'd mention it as it's the sort of thing I think RI readers would find interesting. (and/or get paranoid about <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :p --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/tongue.gif ALT=":p"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> )<br><br>a review:
