HDC Debates #5: Has Japanese horror run it's course?
The Asian horror phenomenon, which jumped into the popularity bandwagon in the late-90s and didn't relent until recent times, saw a lot of films from the Asian subcontinent, specially Japan, gain immense popularity and approval from audiences the world over.
But in recent times, both Asian horror and Japanese horror have taken a backseat. Not many mind-churners and spookfests are coming out from Asia, specially Japan. And those which are, aren't gaining much popularity.
Has J-Horror gone on the decline?
