^^ I was just about to mention Old Boy. Make sure you get the KOREAN version not the US version.

A few others that I liked from Korea:

Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance
Sympathy for Lady Vengeance

Interesting - some notable omissions from what I've seen, but worthy of consideration:

"Vertigo"
"Rear Window" (to hit a couple of Hitchcock's; for that matter "Rope", "Psycho" and "The Birds")
"The Great Escape"
"Grand Prix"
"Lord of the Rings" (1, 2 and 3)
"The Guns of Navarone"
"Twelve O'Clock High"
"The Bridges at Toko Ri"
"Sunset Boulevard"
"Lawrence of Arabia"
"The Bridge On the River Kwai"
"It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"
"The Misfits"
"Judgment at Nuremberg"
