The Japanese Sure Do Like Ghosts
Okay, I admit that I haven't seen a LOT of Japanese horror movies, but the overwhelming majority of the ones I HAVE seen, have involved ghosts...

DO most Japanese films have ghosts in them...Or is it just my own personal limited repertoire that makes it appear so, to me?



I already know that Audition doesn't have any...

Ya know...I actually have a theory about that....Japan is a small island, surrounded by water...Maybe some fear is caused by that....Hmm...

Or Tsunamis...Imagine knowing that pretty much your whole country could be wiped out by a big enough wave :eek: ...I think that would probably cause ME to be a bit afraid of water...

Well with Japan it's probably from stories lord knows how many centuries ago being passed down and you'd probably have to do serious research to get to the base of it.
