American Gangster (2007)
American Gangster (2007)
2007 | Drama
A great film with great actors and well directed. I watched the extended edition and it flew by for me despite being close to 3 hours long. It's not as violent or graphic as the likes of Casino, Goodfellas but it is as equally as immersing as those gangster films. The fact it is based on a true story makes it even more interesting. If you like gangster or mafia films you'll love this!
  
Ninja Assassin (2009)
Ninja Assassin (2009)
2009 | Action, Drama
An all out exercise for the eye-balls! This is a very violent, extremely bloody/gory martial arts film. I think they must use the same techniques used by Asian cinema with almost fountains of blood with every slice and dice of a Ninja sword. Revenge is the plot, of course....way over the top, humanely impossible action scenes, some cool effects and some great fights. It makes Kill Bill look tame in comparison.

Great Slasher series
Another good Slasher series with a different story and cast from the first. Definitely one Slasher fans will love. It's dark, violent and very gory for a TV series. There are plenty of twists and turns in the plot with a good whodunit element as well. With so few decent films of the genre around lately it's great to find an 8 part series that does it so well.

The story of Santa after the apocalypse. Very gory, violent, disturbing, sad, and hilarious! Santa has had enough of his life, and wants to end things. However, one boy still believes in him, and as long as he does, Santa is forced to stay Santa. So...Santa goes to find that boy... If you can only read one Christmas story this year, screw Rudolph, Frosty, and The Polar Express. Read The Last Christmas!

The Black Butler series has taken an extremely dark turn. The story focuses on Ciel's horrific past, and how he came to make a contract with Sebastian. I enjoy the very different feel of the story at this point, but this volume definitely wouldn't be for everyone. There are various degrees of child abuse, some of which are very violent. This turn in the story gives the story a lot more dimension.

complex world
A multilayered complex read, heavy and a lot more bloody and violent than the first book. Seriously, don't read this when trying to eat lunch. A few new characters join the scene and the rough spots in the writing style are smoothed out so it was easier to get into the flow of the book. Still heavy in lore, religion, and superstition that adds to the overall experience of the book.

"When we think of Genghis Khan, we think of one of history’s most violent pillagers and rapists. But in actuality, Genghis Khan was a great democratizer. His Mongol Empire conquered more territory in 25 years than the Romans did in 200. His strategy was to kill off the aristocracy and envelop the lowest members of society into his army. He allowed former servants to rise in rank and gain status in his empire."
