Line 65:
* ''[[Once Upon a Time in China]]'' starring [[Jet Li]] showed the world that Kung Fu cinema is a genre that is more than capable of being artistically poetic, emotionally deep and politically relevant as any European art film.
* ''[[Bubba Ho-Tep]]''. Boy, does it ever.
* ''[[A Clockwork Orange (film)|A Clockwork Orange]]''; is it science fiction? Horror? Psychological Horror? Crime Drama? Political Satire? Political Thriller? All that seems to be certain about [[Stanley Kubrick]]'s masterpiece is that he seems to ''want'' to make viewers upset, and is very good at doing so.
* ''[[Being John Malkovich]]''. A comedy drama laden with surrealism which functions as a borderline philosophy course.
* ''[[Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind]]''. A Science fiction romantic comedy most of which takes place inside the main characters head.
Line 102 ⟶ 103:
* ''[[Tiger Love]]'': You have a ''[[Romeo and Juliet]]'' kind of love story with [[Star-Crossed Lovers]] in it, you have a ''[[Tarzan]]'' kind of plot line in it, you have a [[Revenge]] story combined with horror in which a tiger shapeshifts into a creepy old woman with claws, fangs, and bathed in eerie green light, and martial arts put into it. Good luck trying to classify this film into a genre!
* ''[[Nudist Colony of the Dead]]'': a horror/sex comedy/musical.
