Originally created this list on letterboxd somewhere in 2012, based pretty much on a certain "weird asia" tag that includes around 60 movies. Further expanded on with similiar ones. This list is intended to be anti-smarmy so entries are kept mainly pre-1990 with some fitting exceptions.

Feel free to copy and use on other sites. But as always, kids and ninjas, if you're going to copy someone elses work.. remember to credit the original author..
