Japanese horror movies - do you like them?

Hi!

Do you like Japanese horror movies?
I think they are the best horror movies.

Why they are so different?

Actually, I like Japenese Horror films better than most American ones, the reason for that is because lately, all the horror films have been crap. They seem to be MADE FOR MONEY. Whereas the Japanese ones are MADE FOR HORROR. Of course not all American films are like that, but for the most part I feel that they are.

I love Asian horror, though I wouldn't say its the best horror. Just like everywhere else they have their good ones, they have their bad ones, and their forgettable ones.
