  • Kung Fu Chefs (DVD) (2-Disc Edition) (Hong Kong Version)
    Kung Fu in the Kitchen
    October 30, 2009 Picked By Sanwei See all this editor's picks
    After Kung Fu Fighter, it's understandable to want to run away screaming at the mere thought of another Ken Yip-directed Kung Fu-titled movie starring the tagteam of Vanness Wu, Fan Siu Wong, and those Kung Fu Hustle guys. I certainly went in expecting the worst, but Kung Fu Chefs turned out to be surprisingly enjoyable. The film has way better production values than Kung Fu Fighter, and there's a feel-good, self-effacing wackiness to the whole thing that makes it hard to hate on. Plus, Sammo Hung is in it! As a kung fu-in-the-kitchen action movie, Kung Fu Chef is as silly and chop-socky as the premise and production pedigree promise. Sammo Hung plays a master cook who gets kicked out of his...

  • COLORS - Melody and Harmony / Shelter (Japan Version)
    Soulmates Single
    October 15, 2009 Picked By Sanwei See all this editor's picks
    Dong Bang Shin Ki's "Soulmate Couple" Jae Joong and Yoo Chun offer some hope and music in the midst of the controversy with their new J-pop single COLORS ~Melody and Harmony~. All five members of Dong Bang Shin Ki have tried their hands at songwriting, but Jae Joong and Yoo Chun are thus far the two more notable composers of the group, and they further confirm their talents with this very agreeable self-composed release. Composed by Jae Joong and Yoo Chun, COLORS ~Melody and Harmony~ ranks among the higher echelon of Dong Bang Shin Ki ballads. The title very much reflects the song, which has an almost lulling quality to its easy-going melody, light beats, and gentle harmonization. COLORS... [read more]
  • Joseph Cheng Debut EP (Version A) (CD+Photo Album) (Preorder Version)
    Joe Cheng Fan Service
    October 14, 2009 Picked By Sanwei See all this editor's picks
    Joe Cheng has much room for improvement in the singing department, but he's got everything else down pat for the fans. The Taiwan TV idol's debut EP comes in two editions bundled with great preorder gifts that should make any fan happy. Version A comes with a cute photo album that a colleague of mine dubbed the "evil book of evilness" when I showed it to her to justify my purchase. This isn't one of those typical photo booklets that come with CDs, but an actual A5-sized hardcover photo album filled with adorkable pictures of Joe in Ishikawa, Japan. (There are a few fan-service pool photos in there.) Were the book a bit bigger, it could be sold separately. I've also just retired my Won Bin... [read more]
  • Castaway On The Moon (DVD) (2-Disc) (First Press Limited Edition) (Korea Version)
    Hope is a bowl of black bean noodles.
    October 31, 2009 Picked By Sanwei See all this editor's picks
    Seoul's Han River should be familiar to anyone who's watched The Host as the breeding waters for monster entertainment. But did you know there's also a nature preserve island smack in the middle of the river? That's where Mr. Kim (Jung Jae Young) ends up when he attempts to drown himself, and instead wakes up a castaway on the deserted island. The cityscape shines brightly from the opposite bank, but Kim - who can't swim - is preposterously stranded. Desperation and suicidal thoughts, however, give way to glee when he realizes that he's found his escape from all the debt, heartbreak, and worldly problems that drove him to seek death. Enjoying a newfound life of "perfect boredom", he lives by... [read more]
  • The First 7th Night (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)
    A worthwhile little horror flick
    October 27, 2009 Picked By dian See all this editor's picks
    Is there any film director working in Hong Kong nowadays who is more prolific than Herman Yau? Just in the last 12 months alone, he's got five films released theatrically: the award-winning prostitute pic True Women For Sale, horror drama The First 7th Night, Shaw studio reviver Turning Point, thriller-comedy Split Second Murders, and gangster actioner Rebellion. Despite being small low-budget quickie fare, Yau's films are often well crafted and original, but some do slip off the radar of the cinema-going public. The First 7th Night unfortunately was doomed to such undeserved oblivion, as it is actually one of the better Hong Kong horror films out there most filmgoers have never seen. An old... [read more]
  • The Way Home ....(Hong Kong Version)
    Brings back some fond childhood memories
    November 3, 2009 Picked By A-Xiang Joe See all this editor's picks
    No doubt we all had our naughty moments when we were young, especially when things didn't go our way. Everyone has their own little story to tell about childhood, like female director Lee Jung Hyang's The Way Home. In The Way Home Yoo Seung Ho portrays Sang Woo, a small boy addicted to playing video games and eating junk food. His nightmare arrives in the form of a stay at his grandmother's (Kim Eul Boon) place far away from the heart of Seoul, where he was immersed in all the things he likes best. Told to behave while his single mother tries to find a job, Sang Woo isn't quite willing to oblige. Staying with his deaf and mute grandmother doesn't make things easier. Of course, he is just his...

It's hard today for genre fans around the world to imagine a horror industry without long haired, vengeful female ghosts, with the likes of Ringu, its US remake The Ring, and their countless clones having been terrifying viewers for over a decade now. However, there is far more to the origins of the new wave of Asian horror cinema than Hideo Nakata's television troubling goblin. Back in 1998, at the same time that Ringu was reinventing the modern horror genre in Japan, ghoulish goings were also starting to stir in Korean cinemas. Although perhaps slower to take off and to gather international recognition, the modern Asian ghost film had by the early years of the new century become firmly... [read more]
