Asian Horror
 
I was wondering what you guys consider the best asian horror films to be.

I wasnt very open minded about other cultures movies but then i started talking to zwoti and know i am. I was just wondering what you guys suggested.

Ive only seen the eye as far as asian horror flicks go which i know own. I thought it was decent but not great

I'd like to start by saying I don't know a great deal about asian horror, just what I've seen.

The first Ring (ringu) was quite good, a little more weird and atmospheric than the US version.

The movie based on a manga UZUMAKI is a weird, disturbing and kinda scary mindfuck of a movie.

The manga/anime scene is churning out some pretty horrific shit here and there, I don't know too much about this stuff myself, but no doubt someone on here will.

Not that it's horror, but battle royale is worth a look for seeing some fucked up situations, tense moments, and interesting kills.

I think the 3 I mentioned are all jap...

Uh, I saw a couple of pretty low quality, but funny asian zombie films called versus and Junk, if you're into that kinda thing, theyre maybe worth at least one watch.

My personal favourite of all time is actually a horror comedy from korea I think, one called Mister Vampire...apparently it's a series, but I have only seen part 1. Very funny, and some of the best fight/stunt coreography I have ever seen.

As for action stuff, and I know you didn't ask....if you ever come across these films
*Peking opera blues
*pepper and curry
*zatoichi (the first 3 I have seen, there's heaps)
They are also pretty watchable.

Oh yeah, I also saw the last 5 minutes or so of this asian film called "audition" I think, that was pretty hard to watch....

ringu was better than the us version..
the sequels were ok but not as good as the original.

hopefully my copy of umuzaki will arrive tomorrow :D

ichi the killer is a must see, as are other films by takeshi miike.

mr vampire is a series of comedy/horror from hong kong starring lam ching-ying as the priest.

i won't start about asian action films 'cuz i won't be able to stop....
