Do you like Asian scary movies?

I was surfing here: http://www.ovguide.com/browse_tv which also has a movie section. It brought me to this site: http://www.asian-horror-movies.com/indexm.html

If you enjoy Asian horror movies you might enjoy it. Everything is free and some good movies thought I would pass it along enjoy!!

The Asian Hollywood has been turning out horror for a long time. As of late they've been horrendous... as in terrifyingly good! Ringu, Ju-on, Honogurai mizu no soko kara and the terrifying

Ôdishon
Their American remakes/versions/whatever (The Ring, The Grudge, Dark Water, and Audition aren't really quite as good even if scene by scene... they just somehow lack the PUNCH of the originals. Other Japanese horror that I've enjoyed are a bit older... one was a trilogy of short films called Kwaidan which had ghost stories from ancient Japan. Another horror compilation called Dark Tales of Japan which has a few good short stories to tell.
"H" is a Korean horror film that I've enjoyed...
So yeah it's a fair bet that I've enjoyed the horror that comes from across the OTHER pond.

I enjoyed originals The Grudge and Ringu. But every other Japanese horror I've seen after that was a yawn. Especially Ju-on.

OTOH I saw The Host last year (Korean). Not bad at all.

I wanted to add this: http://www.mysoju.com/browse/japanese-drama/popular/

This site has Asian tv shows and movies. As you can see by my avatar I have been watching Maid Deka(Maid detective) Also note many anime become live action shows so a favorite anime you have may in fact be live action and then you can geek out like I do!!

Not specifically Asian horror but I love foreign movies. Japan and China have always done great films of all kinds or genres but I'm really loving what's coming out of Korea and central Europe right now. The site I like is http://twitchfilm.net/
