    Thematically I think Cronenberg's Spider is the closest I have seen to Cyborg:
    http://www.imdb.com/board/10278731/
    Visually, I thought the Thai movie Citizen Dog was pretty close and thematically somewhat like Taste of Tea and Survive Style 5+

      Lars and the Real Girl - again deals with delusions as a young man believes a sex-doll is his new girlfriend. It's very sweet and quite brilliant.
      Welcome to Dongmakgol - Another Korean film. This time it deals with soldiers who find a small village where they do not know what weapons are. The film is very magical in ways similar to Studio Ghibli films (check them out if you haven't already).

          "Attack the Gas Station" is another great example of Korean cinema. Great comedy/action mix about 4 "youths" who take over a gas station for night. 🙂

            After seeing this I immediately thought of Amelie too.. 🙂 beautiful little film. It's truly sad how many of these films just pass over Western audiencesfor example I usually have to fight with people for ages to convince them to watch Oldboy with me, so many people hate reading subs and I generally refuse to watch most dubs. Once they see it they're in love, but getting them to sit down and watch through it takes hours of convincing 😛

                    The film felt like Amlie meets The Machinist meets One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest in Japan.

                        I just got done watching this film on the Sundance Channel. I feel that this film has a very similar style to "Bubba Ho-Tep" just in the way the main charaters in both films try to help each other with his or her problems in ways the doctors and nurses can not

                                          I recommend 'Barking Dogs Never Bite' (Korean), and 'Big Man Japan' (Japanese, obviously). They're both goofy and funny, but the former sometimes gets VERY dark, especially if you're a PETA person^, and the latter is a spoof of giant monster movies with strangely pornographic-looking monsters (whaddaya expect, it's Japanese^). And a couple of other Korean movies, 'Castaway on the Moon', a funny but touching oddball movie about a pair of oddballs, and 'Going by the Book', which is charmingly outrageous, if that makes sense.
