The HDC Asian Horror/Exploitation Top 100 compilation

[Doc Faustus]

My list, though I will admit to being no expert. In really no particular order:
Gojira
Perfect Blue
Paprika
Silk
Kwaidan
Godzilla versus Hedorah (the most horrorcentric of Godzilla movies, very Lovecraftian)
Matango
Frankenstein Conquers the World
Ichi the Killer
MPD Psycho (I know it's a miniseries, but I think it deserves a spot)
Ninja Scroll
Terrifying Girl's High School Lynch Law Classroom
Female Yakuza: Inquisition and Torture
Suicide Club
Zeiram (so bad it's awesome)
The Bride With White Hair
Audition
Rashomon
Ju-On
Tetsuo:the Iron Man
Yog:Monster from Space
Ghidrah the three headed Monster
The H Man
The Green Slime
The Host

r-point was ok, the guardpost was better.

I own this and STILL haven't seen it - Maybe I'll pop it in tonight.


V - Thanks for this thread - I am getting SO many recommendations!!!

Don't try it in a sitting. There's a chance your brain will eat itself. You might want to go two episodes at a time.

[zwoti]

so it this horror & exploitation or has it expanded yet?



my list is at 80 and counting so far....

First off, Godzilla sucks.


Second, funny you should mention the low budget for Ju-on the grudge 2, coz as i see it it's the ju-on movie with the biggest budget and the best effects. I also liked a lot of Shimizu's ideas in this one, especially because they seemed new and original and not JUST rehash, as i thought was the case with his former 2 ju-on movies.

Yes, maybe the story itself was a little weak, but then again, the story is pretty much the same in all the ju-on and Grudge movies. I watch them for Shimizus creative mind.
