SEED took me totally by surprise, it's fantastically entertaining yet manages to be as bleak as hell at the same time.
LADY SNOWBLOOD. A wonderful mix of over ripe drama and exploitation essentials. I especially enjoyed the music which leaps from traditional Japanese music to jazz to poppy torch songs then back again in a fairly haphazard way. It destabilises the flow of the film in an interesting way, though I'm not sure if this is by choice or luck. Either way, it added something extra to the film for me and increased my enjoyment of it no end.
