List all the Japanese Horror Films you've seen and make mention to the ones you strongly recomend.

Koma
Marebito
Alive
Versus
The Eye
Pulse
A Tale of 2 Sisters
Ju-On
Ringu
Three Extremes
Battle Royale

Out of all those I liked Battle Royal and Ringu the best.

The Eye was also good, it had some really creepy moments in it...but it was a bit on the boring side. Hollywood is actually remaking it right now.

Has anyone seen or heard of 'Naked Blood'?

Ichi The Killer
Old Boy (think it's Korean actually, but yeah)
The Tale Of Two Sisters
Visitor Q
Battle Royale
Battle Royale 2
Versus
Ring
Ring 0
Ring 2
Ringu (best of the series)
R-Point
Tell Me Something
One Night In Mongkok
Abnormal Beauty
Another Public Enemy
Vital
Audition
Bio Zombie
The Eye
Junk
Suicide Club
Dark Water

Quite a few, but half of them are pretty crap.

Out of those I recommend;

Battle Royale (Of Course)
Suicide Club - I used to have a .gif of a scene from it where about 70 girls lined up by the edge of the train platform and all jumped off at once infront of a train.
Versus - Not so much horror, but funny.
Ichi The Killer - Just pure brilliance.


There's a lot of decent French horror movies too like Switchblade Romance, Delicatessen and Irreversible that you might like.

once you are used to it, you don't notice the subtitles. It doesn't bother me at all.
