Posted by: Michael

I dont like foreign films as a rule. It is just not my cup of tea. That said Tartans Asia Extreme is a huge acception. You want gritty, punch in the face action with some of the best writing around? Well Tartan Asia Extreme is what you want. On November 1st, SUNDANCE CHANNEL On Demand invites you to enter the world of ASIA EXTREME, an exciting collection of atmospheric, mysterious and fantastic tales from Korea, Hong Kong and

Japan

. The Asia Extreme collection presents the work of four of the worldâ€™s most talented young filmmakers:

Park Chanwook (Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance): The controversial and demanding films of this Korean filmmaker have been hailed for their psychological insight, moral ambiguity and dreamlike beauty
Shinya Tsukamoto (Vital): A pioneer filmmaker whose cult movies of the late 1980s paved the way for the Asia Extreme movement.
Takashi Shimizu (Marebito): A Japanese filmmaker who presents stylish adventure about perception and reality.
Lo Chi Leung (Koma): Unrelenting tension and psychological twists are what distinguish this Hong Kong filmmaker, who has been called â€œ Asiaâ€™s Alfred Hitchcockâ€
