If you want to do women in horror films, I would stay away from the asian movies and stick to american horror only because you do need a background in asian culture (which can greatly differ depending on location with asia) to really grasp the background to where these stories and roles of women came from.
Women's roles in american horror, I think have been a little more linear. You could explore how women went from the damsel in distress victim to the herione and even the villan. There have been many books written about these topics which can give you directions and ideas from people who have already seen hundred of these types of films versus trying to watch them all yourself.
I would stick to something that you know, it makes it a lot easier to write about. Otherwise, you will spend your whole time researching the project and not giving yourself time to write the paper, and possibly getting a poor grade on it.
