Top 100 Asian Horror Films of All Time

[lostforever]

Like myself and others have said, it just seemed like they randomly started putting known titles in there just to fill the list.

Yep definitely. I'm just surprised they would put Oldboy in there. I can see Lady Vengeance more but even then. Part of the reason why I looked at the list is because it's hard for me to even think of 100 Asian horror films and then to say those are the best isn't very meaningful when they couldn't even really come up with 100. Still though, it promotes discussion and I've got some more movies to track down.

I thought I had seen quite a bit of Asian horror (Audition, Shutter, Ju-on, Ringu, Ringu 2, Ringu 0, A Tale of Two Sisters, Versus, I Saw the Devil, The Eye, Thirst, Battle Royale, Battle Royale 2, Tell Me Something, The Host, Chawz, Ichi the Killer, Izo), but really I haven't. There are 5 Whispering Corridors? WTF? I saw The Housemaid. It's definitely not horror. Besides filling the list with random titles and popular non-horror titles, they also put pretty much every sequel to the famous series ones like Tomie, Ringu, Ju-on even though I'm sure some of those are crap.

Anyone seen Junk? It's not on their list.

I've seen all the Whispering Corridors and aside from being set in or around a school and students, don't necessarily know why they're considered sequels

Speaking of Junk, I noticed they also don't have Wild Zero, Visible Secret and Versus either, all good films I kinda saw around the same time frame back in 2000/2001. It's just further proof that whoever made the list just randomly put in known films up to a certain period.

I like the list, though yes, it does seem incomplete. Maybe it needed to be top 500. Anyhow, some on the list I haven't seen yet.
