    Ok, I am a huge horror movie buff. The cheesier and campier, the better. I only recently started getting into Japanese horror movies after watching the original Ringu trilogy (goddamn they butchered that for the US).

    I'm picky in what I like, but I enjoy watching just about all horror movies. I thought the first half of Ju-On (The Curse) was well done but the second half (The Grudge) seemed pushed. Audition was creepy and I liked it. The Eye was just boring. Ichi The Killer was interesting. I have Battle Royale I and II on the way from eBay and Suicide Club coming from Netflix.

    What else am I missing? :evil:

    Forgot about Versus; have that one set to be Tivo'd. I love modern technology...

    For the record "the eye" is not a japanese film. Though I enjoyed it greatly.

    Get some anime horror in, not entirely scary usually but very grotesque.

    Heh, maybe I should expand this to "Asian horror and slasher type movies". Anime is fine, but anime horror just never had the right feel to me.
