Sympathy for Mr Vengeance and Sympathy for Lady Vengeance are both great films however not nearly as moving nor shocking as OldBoy.

My personal ranking:

1. OldBoy
2. Sympathy for Mr Vengeance...

Grrr... The Wild Bunch needs to be fitted in my top ten most assuredly!

Pulp Fiction is okay, definitely overrated. Tarantino has a nasty habit of cribbing other people's material.

Reservoir Dogs - A major rip of City On Fire (or something like that, a Chinese crime...

In no particular order:

The Wicker Man (Robin Hardy's original)
Rosemary's Baby

In some instances, violence is a neurological or behavioral disorder a la for lack of a better word hyperactive personalities and spastics. The thread has gotten abit off topic oh well.

stlukesguild and JCamilo, excellent responses but I still can't really finger what art is or represents.

But here is over 41 million pages to this following quandry.

What is art?

Edgar Allen Poe has already been mentioned but I definitely consider the works of Howard Phillips Lovecraft art. Weird fiction that catagorically fits under horror, fantasy, and science fiction. Of...

The car museums located world wide would beg to differ particularly the large famous ones in New York, Frankfurt, Geneva where ever else.

Style and design is art too as is an artist's signature.
