Our review queue has grown quite large over the past few months. Here’s a list of item’s we plan on covering, time permitting, over the next few weeks.

• Kill! - The last film in Criterion’s Rebel Samurai box set. Review will be up this weekend.
• Marebito - By the director of Juon and starring the director of Tetsuo: The Iron Man. Kris is writing up her take on the film.
• Night Watch - We’ve been sitting on this for quite a few months. We hope to have a review soon.
• Sympathy for Lady Vengeance - Chan Wook Park’s final installment in the Vengeance trilogy. Not as good as Oldboy, but far better than Sympathy for Mr. V.  Expect a review this or next week. 
• Final Fantasy Advent Children - We started watching this last night. I’ll tell you right now, it’s wicked cool. A definite treat for fans of FFVII.
• The Promise - Directed by Chen Kaige (The Emperor and the Assassin, Farewell my Concubine). If you don’t already know, it’s the most expensive film in Chinese history.
• Kekko Kamen - Anime by Go Nagai (Cutey Honey, Devilman) about a superheroine who fights in her birthday suit. Hell, that’s half the review right there. 

In addition we have a boatload of food and music reviews in the queue, and even a few contests coming up. Stay tuned!
