i've been on at least 5 major 'Horror' forums and have found that exploitation flicks were very muched discussed on every single one of them because the overlap in theme, atmosphere, and interest. It is undeniably entwined with 'pure horror' around our film sensibilities.

and nothing reflects this more than the asian market.

realistically .... with 'pure horror' - pure asian horror - even a top 50 would be pushing it ... the last 25 would be mediochre at best.

this is to be a list of films we use to recommend to each other - it might as well include all the films that horror fans would appreciate.
Maybe we should skip asian horror then and just do an exploitation only or perhaps expansion asian horror to foreign horror (which you could break out by region if you wanted to) or something? I still think that trying to smoosh horror and exploitation together is just going to taint the list though. :cool:
