Brillant asian horror-drama's you probably never heard from! - Googolplex - 01-22-2015
Hey guys, recently I bought a lot of new horror stuff to my collection, because I think good horror movies are rare. Here are some brillant pieces of special horror beyond the cliches from Ring or Grudge.
Some of them might be only avaiable in korean language, but the most should feature international languages like english, german, french etc.
Asian horror movies are a lot more dramatic than the most american or other "mainstream" horror movies.
Here is a list of very special and unknown masterpieces.
The Doll Master
A Tale Of Two Sisters
Cello
The Red Shoes
Into The Mirror
Dark Water
Cinderella
Noroi: The Curse
The Call 1-3
Wishing Stairs
Voice Letter
Premonition
Acacia: The Roots of Evil
4 Horror Tales: D-Day, February 29, Forbidden Floor, Roommates
Epitaph
The Phone
The Cat
The Maid
Diary Of Wishful Thinking
Bunshinsaba
Infection
Pieta
Durst
Ju-On: The Curse

Ring (Ringu) is Japanese, unless you're talking about "The Ring Virus" which is the South Korean remake.
Some other Asian horror films you might like:
- Bakjwi (South Korea)
- Chakushin Ari (Japan)
- Ju-On (Japan) - Note that this is Ju-On "The Curse", not Ju-On "The Grudge". I think they're all just titled Ju-On in Japanese, which makes it confusing. It's the first in the series and in my opinion it's better than Ju-On "The Grudge", but you might want to check out the whole film series.
- Sorum (South Korea) - While I don't consider it a horror film, it does have some tense/eerie moments.

I recommend adding Audition to your collection, Googol.

Fuck that, i'll get nightmares for dat shit.

Cool, thanks for the tips. Yeah, I mean Ringu from Japan. Sorry for that mistake.
I think Ju-On: The Grudge was not very good, where The Grudge (US remake) was much better. I will check Ju-On: The Curse.
Oh, this movie is a lot better than Ju-On: The Grudge. Thanks for the tip!
Chakushin Ari is the same as The Call or One Missed Call? It's already on the list.
I will buy Audition and all the others. Sorum just seems like to be only in korean language.
I need a german audio track.
I also should add Dark Water.

Ah yes, I knew it only as "One Missed Call", I thought you were referring to some other movie named "The Call".
I will definitely check out some of the films in your list. Thanks for sharing!

I bought The Call 1-3 as a trilogy box for only 10 euros. Here in germany the name of the movie series is just "The Call", but it's the same as "One Missed Call".
