Japanese horror movies - do you like them?
 
Hi!

Do you like Japanese horror movies?
I think they are the best horror movies.

Why they are so different?

Actually, I like Japenese Horror films better than most American ones, the reason for that is because lately, all the horror films have been crap. They seem to be MADE FOR MONEY. Whereas the Japanese ones are MADE FOR HORROR. Of course not all American films are like that, but for the most part I feel that they are.

I love Asian horror, though I wouldn't say its the best horror. Just like everywhere else they have their good ones, they have their bad ones, and their forgettable ones.

Audition, Battle Royal, couple others i cant think of just now...

I like good Horror movies,it's irrelevent where they are made.That said,Japanese and Asian horror movies do tend to offer something a little different to what western audiences are used to.Different cultures have different tastes and sensibilities which produces a nice variety of Horror to explore.So it's all good :)

ya know, I've never watched an Italian horror movie before. I have seen 10 Days of Sodom. Now that movie was just plain fucked up. Which is good and bad at the same time. Now I generally like messed up movies, but there was something about that one that I just couldn't stand.
