Re: Re: Re: Re: Any new creepy japanese horror movies that i should know about?
 

Okidoki, thanks. I´ll save my money for something else then.;)

well, I havent seen it, I just read the back, and I remember it said something about chainsaw massacre's in it. I maybe wrong though.

Watched "Phone" last night.It was aight,def worth a rent...although the little girl in it was great.One of the creepiest kid performances I've seen.

if it's not little girls.....it's women with long wet hair......these asian films begin to seem alike after awhile

Very true....it was scary after the first 3 or 4 times but enough is enough. I guess its much like Hollywood...they find something that sells and its OVERKILL time.

I'm still waiting for "Shutter" in the mail.I'm hoping it comes sans creepy kid & long black hair.

Anyone mention Junk yet?

they certainly seem to have the same elements ...
but they manage to use them with great effect (except Phone, which i didnt like at all .. again with the hair in the drain ?)

I think the japanese ghost film is so much like the italian giallo films its crazy ... only the japanese being supernatural where the italians - its a slasher ..

they are both presented as mysteries .. it has to be solved before there is closure.
It's always traced back to somethingt the lead character - potential victim was involved in ..

the japanese substituted shocks for the italian gore but they still follow a lot of the same 'rules'

Oooh, so very, very true newb. But i´m a sucker for creepy movies no matter how unimaginative they´re starting to get.:)

I don´t think so?

Isn´t that a zombie movie?

Is it good or is it like the title?;)

I´ve just recieved "A chinese ghost tale" in the mail today.

Has anybody seen it? Creepy? Good?

Yeah its a zombie movie but i havent got a chance to see it yet, but i'll probably download it and then report back here. I heard its pretty fucking good though...i think Kpro told me that..

It sounds pretty generic lol, but it might be good. Might want to make it a new thread.

Congratulations on your 1000th post by the way

Why, thank you ever so kindly Hate_Breeder.:)

About "A chinese ghost tale" i read on IMDB that it shoukd be a blend of martial arts and horror.... Yeah right. I´ll bet it´ll be just the first... But what the fuck, it sounded interesting. Should be visually beautiful. So i´m hoping for some kind of positive result.

Maybe they´ve even translated it in some kind of readable english. I have my fingers crossed.:rolleyes:




Now about "Junk". WATCH IT GOD DAMMIT!!!:D

Its like those american slasher movies of the 80's........but when they stop producing them you miss them :cool:

"A chinese ghost story"


Damn, what a stupid movie.

The acting was theatrical and bad. The horror was nonexisting. The martial art scenes were sword fighting scenes (No fists or kicks). Oh, and of course the fighters could jump 50 feets in the air. God, i hate that. The effects were fairly good at times but mostly pretty lousy, like the skelletons. And the story was just plain crappy.

Somewhere i´ve read that it should be visually beautiful. Well, you could easily see that it wasn´t a B-movie, but when i think visually beautiful i think "Hero" and it didn´t reach that one to its shoelaces.

WHO THE FUCK RECOMMENDED THIS STINKER? Grrrrrrrrrr!!!!

you....
take the good
you take the bad
you take them both
and then you have...?

The ugly ?

LOL.:p


Nice answer!;)

Weeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!:D


Just recieved two Asian movies in the mail today.

1. "Ong-bak" actually a martial art movie, that Cheeba told me about. Should have some nice fighting scenes and the worst translated subtitle ever. LOL :p


2. "R-Point" I´m really looking forward to this horror/war movie...:)
