Well it seems that Hollywood really has a sweet tooth for snatching up some of Asia's horror films! I'm sure some of you saw the remakes of; One Missed Call, The Grudge, The Ring, and now! SHUTTER! Umm I just gotta say one thing on that, Shutter was originally a THAI film (thans superjaz!)...so why is it based in Tokyo? Goodness I hate these damn remakes. Sorry if anyone enjoyed them but just had to get that lil rant out...
On a lighter note has anyone watched any good J-horror films lately?
I'm obsessed with Takashi Miike and so of course have to push all his films on you guys <3 Here is a small list of some of his flix (American titles provided) that are really worth watching!
- Ichi the Killer (Tadanobu Asano is a sexy masochistic yakuza n.n;

- Audition (Gross part is that scene with girl umm...being sick in the dog dish...really happen. Talk about devotion to a roll.)
- Imprint (It's in Engrish! Beware the graphic abortions.)
- One Missed Call
- Happiness of the Katakuris (Claymation, zombies, horror, all wrapped up in a screwy musical!)
- MPD Psycho (It's an anthology...only the edited versions are out there now)
Anyways there are lots more but those are some of his best in my opinion, other Japanese horror(ish) films to check out.
- Uzumaki
- 2LDK
- Banquet of the Beasts
- Suicide Club (Come die with us!)
- Tomie
- Tetsuo: The Iron Man
Kk there are lots and lots and lots more. But what about you guys have you seen any worth watching or any of the ones mentioned?
