Welcome back to my 31 Days of Halloween series. Today is Day #22, and I’m listing my top Japanese Horror flicks.
It’s interesting that most horror movies that you see today are based on Japanese culture, horror, and short stories. Three of the 6 on my list have been remade in America, but personally, their Japanese predecessors are much scarier.
From grudges to violet deaths, or revenge if you’ve seen it in America it first came to fruition in Japan.
So here is are my top 6 Asian Horror Flicks.

Writing this post and gathering the information gave me a chill. On the scary-creep factor scare, these movies ARE NOT for the faint of heart. Not necessarily gory, but scary all the same.
