i havent seen a single decent asian horror movie to date.
to me it's sorta like, they're supposed to be scary, they're trying really hard to be scary, so you end up just going along with it & pretending to be slightly.. somewhat creeped out, but in the end it's just a bucket of blaaaah.
like, suicide circle was a great movie. it was supposed to be a great ~horror~ movie, but it was so totally cheese for that part.
even ju-on, which ppl're saying's like badass compared to the american release, was just sorta.. cute..
haven't seen shutter, but i guess ill grab it sometime.
but like, expectations, totally not high.


did you see Audition?

Audition wins.


Also, is Suicide Circle the same as Suicide Club?



Also: Marebito.

What defines 'scary'?

Cuz no movie kept me up at night since I was like 6...


Doesn't mean that Ju-On wasn't a decent scary movie...



Also: Marebito.


Also: the shit with the needles in Audition got to me...

marebito ill get too, since its a monkey rec heh
scary is .. scary
like if it manages to make you feel submerged in the movie to the point where, something creeping up behind the main char's creeping up behind your back too. i guess?
like i havent been scared absolutely shitless since i was a kid too, thanks 'are you afraid of the dark', but my point was more that, in terms of building believable suspense or introducing sudden shock, asian horror just seems a failure in that dept. psychological horror/mindfuck isnt quite the same. like, visitor q was scary, scary in the way that, someone legally/succesfully made that shit into a film, but it wasn't like, terror/horror scary persay.
i mean its like, silent hill's supposed to be scary - the ps1 games were scary - but when you see some idiot woman totally ignoring the signs'n be all, WELP time for a vacation into silent fucking hill~~ it sorta.. derides any feeling of suspense that could possibly be built up due to her sheer stupidity alone.
