Very true.
That subway scene with the flesh-metal zombie woman freaked me out though.

Asian horror is by far the best. However films like Ju-on (this board) suck. I can't stand those stupid ghost stories with the long haired girls. They're beyond bad.
Good asian horror are films by Takashi Mikke, Sion Sono, Chan Wook Park.. -

I saw film about a pregnant woman that was seeing all kinds of freaky stuff, ghosts trying to get "inside" other pregnant women and stuffthat was a good one! Turns out the ghosts were souls that gave life to the babiesanyone know this one? I'd like to find it.
Also one that had a bit of newspaper flying around and people who caught it and read it would read about their own deaths. -

Sorry this is so late, I don't know if you already know about this site, but Crunchyroll.com has a massive list of movies/tv shows from all over asia (Japan, Korea, China etc) So any list that someone gives you, you'll more than likely find whatever it is you're looking for on that site. You should be able to view some without signing up, but to make sure you can view everything, I do suggest that you do sign up for an account, it's completely free.
There is one other thing though, some stuff on their is licensed which means that the film company or TV company doesn't want it to be shown on their, and so it is taken off, but I've seen quite a few good horrors on their that aren't licensed, or at least not yet licensed anyway.
There are actually alot of other sites where you can find Japanese horror movies, just type in your search bar, something like "Japanese horror movies online" or something, and you should come up with various sites that host videos. Their might even be some on YouTube, but I wouldn't count your chickens on finding things easy on there.
But Crunchyroll is definitely the way to go.
