Cat. III Horror Movie Recomendations.

[Splat]

After watching Ebola Syndrome and The Untold Story I am keen on watching more Cat III horror movies. What would people here recommend for me? I guess any Asian horror movie could be mentioned here as well.

Not big on most Asian Ghost stories, in particular the Japanese Cycle, or those wacky Jumping Vampire movies. I am a Zombie and Gore Fan for the most part.

Should mention I have Junk, Versus, R Point, Grotesque and Chinese Torture Chamber.

So what is out there I have too see?

I enjoyed Meatball Machine. A lot of over the top gore in that one.

Red to Kill

[woodenheart]

oh yeah..

Intruder and Madame O

[Splat]

Thanks guys

I forgot that I also have Ricki-O, Battle Royale II Death Note I & II and Laboratory of the Devil. I'm old you know

Battle Royale II Death Note I & II

I'm not really sure if those would be considered Cat III. Death Note definitely shouldn't be.

[BigFatOgre]

I'm not sure what defines "Cat III".

[woodenheart]

Category III (CAT III) is a certificate given by the Hong Kong censors office (the Hong Kong equivalent of the american NC-17 or X), to films that contains extreme graphic violence, excessive sexual content and more.

[BigFatOgre]

Nice. Sounds like my kind of Asian Cinema!

[Splat]

I'm not really sure if those would be considered Cat III. Death Note definitely shouldn't be.

They aren't but I ended up adding any Asian Horror to the mix in my original post. But in the end I am pretty much only interested in the Cat III/Hong Kong based movies of Asian Horror.

Cat III movies I have seen seem to be able to capture a whole style of gore and nastiness that I like and also add a comedy element that doesn't distract from the whole story. For whatever reason I associated this quality with more the Japanese then the Chinese for whatever reason. I have been pleasantly surprised as these movies I have watched so far have been brilliant.

I really enjoyed Run & Kill.

Stay away from Organ though,real sleeper.

[Splat]

I forgot about this thread I created. Just spotted it and was thinking cool a Cat III thread. Scrolled to the top and was like 'oh'.

[Primetimeloser]

Stay away from Organ though,real sleeper.

We liked it enough to buy it. Some interesting visuals as I recall.

Grotesque pretty much does it for cat.III. It's got it all, and yet, a touching love story amidst all the insanity.
