pretty much anything directed by takashi miike ("dead or alive," "ichi the killer," "visitor q") is bound to at least get you to say "what the shit?" that's why i like him; he's like the tarantino of japan... but better, or more disturbing, i still can't decide which.
also i liked parasite eve and ringu was pretty good as well for horror type flicks.
and i just watched this movie called "onmyoji" and i absolutely loved it! :love
i know there's tons of good ones out there, but i'll leave it up to the other one or two people on this board that have a clue of what i'm talking about.
last Japanese film I saw was Ringu... need to see the other 2 or 3 (or however many were made)
Closest I can get to an actual Japanese film is this, which my brother gave to me:
