Umm, am I disturbed?



Film in Question: Audition

I picked up this film after watching Martyrs, Ichi the Killer, Inside, Etc...
And I have to say it wasn't as gruesome as I expected. The scenes I found, were way too brief, in comparison to how long I had to sit through awkward mundane chatter between the two leads.. The thing is, I feel it needs to be seen by someone who has no expectation of violence, that way it's shock value is heightened. So here lies the problem - if I wasn't privy to it's hyped up gruesomeness, would I have waited around to see it?



However, my overall perception of Audition is a positive one and I may be tempted to rewatch it.
