Top 10 Asian Horror Films

Made famous in the West with the release of Ringu (aka Ring) which first introduced us to the tropes of J-Horror, since then a whole host of Asian movies have malignantly menaced our big and small screens making us all inordinately afraid of pale girls with long black hair covering their faces in the process.

With ghost stories from China, chilling tales of revenge from South Korea, and brutal, bloody blockbusters from Japan, the world of horror has gotten far wider as you can see from our list of the Top 10 Asian Horror Films below.
