I love World cinema movies so I took up the rent 3 dvd's online then post the back when finished thingy.

Anyway, this means I can watch around 30 dvd's per month.

Now, I have seen most of the classic stuff, not 100% into the martial arts movies.

Any recommedations?

-The Machinist
-Any Hellraiser

La Haine - incredible french film, so entertaining and thought provoking

Gozu - very odd japanese headfuck film... or any takashi miikes films really, lol

City Of God

Babel (mutli language)
Internal Affairs trilogy (Chinese)
13 Tzameti (French)
Goodbye Lenin (German)
Fucking Åmål (Danish)
Hot Fuzz (British )
Nightwatch & Daywatch (Russian)

I'm a huge fan of House of Flying Daggers. Easily in my top 10 movies.


City of God was really good. ^^

I'm a huge MA fan, but non MA foreign films that I really enjoyed were the Infernal Affairs Trilogy, The Killer, Hard Boiled, and Oldboy. Chances are, if you a big fan of foreign movies, you've seen all of them, but I thought I'd throw it out there. A few martial arts movies of note, I'd say, even though you aren't a huge fan: Prodigal Son, SPL (Kill Zone if you are in the US), Once Upon a Time in China Trilogy, Drunken Master, Tony Jaa's movies (make sure to watch Tom Yum Goong uncut), and I should probably stop now. I'm a nerd, it's okay.

I can't watch new ones at a very fast rate, mostly because I have to buy most of them.

Oh, and Banlieue 13 if you haven't yet. It's kind of martial arts, but it's pretty much just a beautiful showcase for Parkour and free running. Really awesome movie. French, if you didn't guess by the obvious title.
