I'm going to edit my list here as I see more that deserve to be on it. If other Asian horror fans do the same, this might end up being a useful thread.

I just added Phone and dropped Marebito. I plan to see Premonition next.

[The Flayed One]

Mine's going to be pretty vanilla. I've only seen about 40 asian horrors so far:(

In no particular order:

A Chinese Ghost Story
The Eye
Kairo
Kwaidan
Battle Royale
Premonition
Uzumaki
Marronnier
Versus
Perfect Blue

(I own every one except Battle Royale)

I agree. It's hard for me to make any kind of favorites list because I always forget one or two. Then I see them on someone else's list and have to add them to mine. Case in point...I'm replacing The Heirloom with Premonition.

I'm sure there will be more changes to follow seeing as how I bought five more Asian movies yesterday during my Black Friday outing: H, Red Shoes, Sorum, Infection, and Premonition.

I'll be interested to hear what you think of these. I really liked Red Shoes except for the constant screaming of "Tae-Soo," which nearly ruined it for me. They should have just called the damn movie Tae-Soo. I've got Premonition and Infection coming from Netflix in the next couple days I hope.

Premonition wasn't bad, but it wasn't nearly scary enough to make my list. Still, it was entertaining and I'm glad I watched it.

I think I might have to expand my list to top 20 or 25. As I see more and more Asian horror flicks, 10 just isn't enough to capture the greatness. I'll add to my original list periodically, so feel free to do the same.
