He maybe unknown outside of Asia but this year's Cannes Film Festival the director won his first major award with his latest movie Oki's Movie will be closing this year's Venice Film festival, these are two signs of how well respected the director is within the world film industry. This retrospective is a fantastic way to learn and experience movies from another country or as one experienced movie goer said to me "diverse your pallette", basically he meant think out the comfort box of Hollywood a little and embrace the wonderful movies world cinema has on offer and what better way you guys can start by taking in the retrospective of Hong Sang-Soo

Everybody must be loco down Mexico way, well they are in EL INFIERNO aka HELL! drugs, violence, body parts, guys with poswer tools, its el diablo at his best or should we say Luis Estrada in his latest movie. If you want some  black comedy with lashings of graphical violence but in a funny way Estrada's movie takes the rip out of the Mexican drug trade and Danny Trejo is nowhere to be seen!!!
Check out the trailer after the break...
