Just rented the Japanese movie 'Versus' - what a fun film. Totally wacko. Definitely a cult classic.
Anybody know of similar films made by the same people?

If anyone does, Keith Loh will.
Versus was awsome, except for the last 1/3rd which was dead boring.

The director of Versus is Ryuhei Kitamura. His followup to 'Versus' was 'Alive', which I haven't seen and I only vaguely know what it is about.

The most recent one of his is an out and out samurai actioner which takes place in a temple with demons and swordfighting. It's called Aragami.
If you're interested in more modern samurai action films here's a trailer for one that opened recently: Azmumi, about a woman samurai.
