Well, my wife woke up this morning and told me tere would be no more Asian films for us... I think she is taking it a bit too hard, and I am sure I can soften her enough to continue, albeit not every day. I think I will need to throw in some French stuff in the soup for her. She kept saying: "I want something European!" Silly woman...I didn't think it was just a light romantic commedy up to the explosion point - to me there was just too much tension already building up. That bag gave you some hint, but even more suspenseful was just her motionless figure in front of the telephone, that was a masterstroke. The jumping bag was way too obvious. That figure was comparable to the moment of absolute horror in the M when the mother looks at the empty stairs... brrrrrrrrr....
Yes, it was in Japanese and the titles sucked, they were white-on-white many times. It was also funny that the tape from the rental place had the DVD menu at the end... hmmmmmm...
I forgot theother titles I got for now - only recall Ashes of Time. There are five from your list of seven. So I dunno... sounds like more sofa sleeping for me.
Or perhaps I just watch them alone, my wife sometimes just does that. This is how I watched that Dutch "1-900" marvel.
