never heard from it before

I saw it after Cry recommended it in one of his videos. That movie is great and extremely disgusting at the same time. Definitely worth a watch!

Yeah, it's a classic. Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance is also pretty good but
really depressing and I have no interest in seeing it again. I haven't
seen Sympathy for Lady Vengeance but I've heard it's the weakest of the
three (not sure though).

People seem to forget that L.A. is where the modern cinema comes from and that many of the greatest filmmakers worked out of Hollywood. The industry has always been corrupt and nowadays just ridiculous but that's no reason to completely shun the entirety of Hollywood. There are also plenty of pretentious, uninspired and boring indie movies; the only difference is that those movies usually don't have any star power to help them.

True. But people are quick to jump on the "Hate everything related to Hollywood"-bandwagon.
