Good Foreign Films You've Watched
So... what are some must see foreign films you've seen?
I'm into gorey horror flicks, so I have to recommend Battle Royale (1 and 2) as well as Ichi the Killer. It was the movie that inspired Quinten to make the Kill Bill series, but for those with easily excitable stomachs, be-warned..

There's this one film I saw on TV a few years ago. It was shot in Italian with Spanish subtitles, and there were maybe 50 total lines of dialogue, but it was absolutely one of the best movies I've ever seen. It's a shame I can't remember the name. It was the epitome of a psychological thriller.
And then I saw Hot Shots Part Deux on Mun2 (Spanish) and it was even funnier than the original.
I don't even know what I'm talking about. I can touch my toes though.

Amelie - excellent French film
Lola rennt - or "Run, Lola, Run" - German film
Bread and Tulips - Italian film--slow in spots
La Femme Nikita - French film that an American film and TV series were based off of
There are too many great films from the UK to list!
