   I love Asian horror, but I'll admit I hadn't heard of some of these.  Thanks for the handy list.  Now I know what to watch this weekend!

2. Dale Said,

   I have heard of two or three of the movies listed. I have seen The Host which I found enjoyable. From the should have been on the list but wasn’t as mentioned mentioned is The Maid.

   During the Seventh month on the Chinese calendar, the gates of hell open and the dead rise to walk the Earth. There are rules people must follow for 30 days in order to survive. Never swim, never turn back at night when you hear someone calling your name, and never talk to strangers on a deserted road. Break any of the rules, and you face the haunting consequences. Rosa (Alessandra de Rossi), a young woman from the Philippines, arrives in Singapore to work as a domestic maid. Na’e and innocent, she has never believed in the supernatural and ultimately breaks the rules of the seventh month, one by one. Now she will pay a terrible price for her ignorance.

   I recommend this movie and suggest you seek it out. Atmospheric and creepy are a couple of words that come to mind.

   I would have included Battle Royale. This was my first Asian Horror Movie ever. The only reason my why my Asian Horror Movie viewing list is so small is because I HATE to read horror movies. I must admit the ones I have seen I have really enjoyed.
