I am not trying to make a vow or what but maybe for a few months starting from now, I am not going to watch any Japanese movie. 'A Samurai Princess' leaves a bad taste in my mouth. And I have no idea why, oh why did they have the word princess in there when the best word to use is devil.

I was watching it an hour ago with my couch potato buddy, who else other than my ever devoted sister. We stopped the movie mid way, look at each other and uttered at the same time, "WTF is this?". If you think butchering heads, with bloods streaming out and eye balls rolling, hands chopped off and tongue cut off are funny, go ahead and watch it. I know, I have mentioned it in my post yesterday in Mindless Tweets(entitled Horror, Thrillers and My Lunch). I have never expected to watch one the next day.
I can only blame myself for not reading the synopsis of the story before watching. And those butchering is not the worst part yet. The sex-maniac, crazy, mentally-disabled and disgusting men are. I should have expect sex scenes since it is after all, a bloody Japanese movie. I didn't watch the whole movie because after 20.11 minutes, the video landed in my Recycle Bin. But, the first twenty minutes, we saw lips locking and the stupid hand touching something he shouldn't.
Horribly pathetic and disgusting, no wonder crime rates in Japan are hiking up and rape cases are on the news every day. What do you expect when the film makers are such fart faces themselves? I am not surprised if the arrow hits the ceilings one day. Just please stay away from Malaysia.
If you are looking for a grotesquely ugly movie, go on and watch it but don't come back, scolding me for such bad recommendation.
Anyway, after that disheartening experience, I washed the pile of clothes(hand washed, mind you) while listening to (500) Days of Summer's soundtrack. Now, that's what a good movie is. Romantic and with a twist bit of humor in it and fantastic soundtrack which I really, really enjoy.
I don't know what's up later. Possibly studying History again. Will keep you guys informed.
