Anyone else into Japanese Horror?
The Kid and I started watching it a while ago, and just love it.
I actually enjoy watching it subtitled, as opposed to dubbed.
These movies are very different than American made movies. They don't always make sense, but they really leave you thinking at the end.
Some of our favorites:
Battle Royale: In future Japan, the government capture a class of ninth-grade students and force them to kill each other under the revolutionary "Battle Royale" act. It looks like this one is going to be remade with a release of next year, but it is a classic movie!
Ichi the Killer: Just a LOT of gore.
Of course the original Ring (Ringu) and Grudge (Ju-On).
Suicide Club: A detective is trying to find the cause of a string of suicides. Very different movie.
These movies aren't for everyone, but I really enjoy them. Additionally, I find they are interesting because of the cultural differences.
