I really should have said Asian ghost stories suck. I'm a big fan of asian horror flix, but those movies give a bad name to the genre. Then when you say you like asian horror people just think of that shit! Pisses me off!!!!
Of couse the Shineing is good, but I wouldn't even consider that a ghost movie.. i guess it is
A Tale of Two Sisters was also good.  But those movies like the Ring.. ARGGG THEY MAKE ME SO MAD Angry Angry

Why wouldn't you consider The Shining a ghost movie?

I saw a Japanese ghost movie that I actually liked once.. I can't remember what it was called.. but it was before The Ring and The Grudge and shit start polluting our country's teenage minds.

I just don't really think of the Shining as a ghost story.. just more of a horror movie where a guy goes crazy.
But I see why it could be. I'd rather not call it a ghost story anyway because like I said, when I think of ghosts stories I think of PILEZ OF SHIT!

Stir of Echoes was far superior than The Sixth Sense ...



Word.  Stir of Echoes is waaaay better.  The story was written in the 50s by Richard Matheson, good stuff.
 
And here we go....
Ghost Story  (pretty kick ass...though the book was better.)
The Haunting  (the orginal!!!)
The Changling
The Entity
The Sentinel (1977, about a gateway to Hell, kinda supernatural)
Burnt Offerings (Karen Black and Oliver Reed are excellent in this film!)

All classics!  There are more, I just can't think of any right now. The Japanese can only want to make ghost stories as good as these...
So don't go around saying there ain't no good ghost movies.  If you haven't seen these, give 'em a try.

I love the ending to The Sentinel so effing much.

That's too bad, because movies like The Ring are fantastic. And by "like the Ring" I mean The Ring is fantastic. And not all Asian ghost stories suck. Why do they give a bad name to the genre?

Sure they're are some bad ones, but just like there are bad American horror movies. For the better part of the 90's American horror was associated with crap like the later Friday the 13ths, bad Halloween sequels, Chucky, Leprechaun and it's imitators and tons of other lackluster offerings. As an intelligent human being and a  fan of the genre, I would never say American horror sucks because of those films.

I would say that American horror is lacking, but IMO all asian ghost stories (except Tale of Two Sisters) are beyond bad. You couldn't pay me to watch those horrendous ring movies. I'd rather watch Hostel or the Strangers, and that's really saying something. And I absolutely love asian horror films! Just not that long haired ghost girl garbage. Here's a few good asian films you should see: Suicide Circle, Noriko's Dinner Table, Hair Extensions, Ebola Syndrome, Audition, Ichi the Killer, Naked Blood....

We just like different kinds of horror films, no use talking about it anymore.

We just like different kinds of horror films, no use talking about it anymore.

The Ring films, at  least Ringu and Ring 0 are quality horror films. That long haired girl ghost garbage, when done right, is great stuff. Sure there are tons of bad movies out there, but like I said, that could said about any nations horror films, or cinema in general. I've seen more than those types of films and this is all we've really talked about so I don't see why you would assume that because our pallet of taste might have variances, that you would say "we like different kinds of horror". I also loved Audition and I would never consider Ichi the Killer a horror film.

I get what you're saying, that all forms of horror have good films and bad films so you don't think it's fair to call them all bad just because of the bad ones. I'm just saying that I think that they're all bad, so I say all of them suck! It's not that there's a ton of them and some are good and some are bad. They all suck! That's it!

Why isn't Ichi horror? If Ichi isn't then Ring isn't.
By saying we like different kinds of horror I meant just what I said, you like ghost girl shit and I look good films.. of course I'm sure  I dislike tons of the films you like and I'm sure you probably dislike some of my favorites. For example I hate ALL of the Friday the Thirteenths and of the Jason movies all of the Halloween movies.
My favorite modern horror film is May, which it seems most people hate.
And at the same time I'm sure we love same of the same flix and could get along fine. So let's just stop talking about it since I'm not very good at thinking of arguments Smiley
