Hmm, perhaps I did watch it with the wrong subtitles. I'll give it another go sometime just to be absolutely sure. I'll agree with the first part, I liked the vibe of the movie. Kind of slow, not alot of music from what I remember and vaguely haunting with all of the whites and greys. The movie feels cold that's for sure. But I also remember feeling that parts of the plot didn't have a proper exposition, like those hunter guys, they just seemed kind of around. My favorite bit of cinematography that I can recall is at the end when he's underwater. Either way, it probably doesn't help that I'm not too into vampire pictures. As I've said on here before, my favorite vampire movie is Vampire's Kiss, and it's not even really a vampire movie. Just watched this the other day: ![]() A much better film than the cover looks. The cover looks like Gold Diggers: Secret of Bear Mountain or something. The film is actually fairly dark and explores Native American desolation, reservation living, prejudice, all that jazz. Very cool movie and I'll watch anything with Gary Farmer in it. Also saw the newly restored Metroplis, it's amazing how adding that stuff actually improves the pace. The film flows alot better now. And the Thin Man/11811 subplot is badass.

The "Let the Right One in" novel was great. A fucking wicked vampire back story for Eli that is only hinted in the creepy image of Eli's genitals.

"Too long" applies to every film from Asia (except, strangely, or appropriately, Kitano's!).

too long applies to most films over 80 mins. Slashers had that shit down to a science.

I have to agree, actually. Godard films, too, are hardly ever more than 70-80 minutes long. Strangely, my favorite film ever is 4 hours long.. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Tetsuo is 50 minutes. I think it's a perfect length, and it's actually why all my films are 45-50 minutes. It just feels like the perfect length to me.

Hmm let me see...
"Runtime: 67 min | Argentina:69 min (Mar del Plata Film Festival)" But yeah, don't lengthen your movies! |

The runtime on the old vhs I have says 52 minutes or something like that.
Either way, the whole thing with Tetsuo -- and my movies -- is they move so fast and there is so much information to take in, that it can be overwhelming. Did you watch currently untitled yet? It's by far my best/craziest.. |

I've heard of berlin... I'm intimidated by it. I was referring to The Human Condition, which is easily one of the unsung masterpieces of cinema
