Sorry, amigo - I somehow missed your post. I'm still getting used to this forum's format.

Anyway, that's a great one, too. I dig it, though it has one type of scene I have trouble watching - an Achilles tendon being cut open. And I've seen it twice. The rest is an excellent revenge thriller, though.

Woochi is kind of silly, but I enjoyed it, too. The idea is awesome, but some of the acting and dialogue don't work well, at least for me. Still, it's great.

Great list! My order is constantly changing, but my OP is how I rank them now. Thanks for the post!

1) My Sassy Girl
2) The Foul King
3) The Good, The Bad, The Weird
4) Oldboy
5) Train to Busan
6) Fabricated City
7) The Beauty Inside (great concept...a cursed man who wakes up with a different body every day looks for love)
8) City of Violence
9) My Wife is a Gangster
10 is a tie) Hi Dharma! and Volcano High (the original and not the cruddy MTV cut)
