15 Asian Horror Films You’ll Regret Watching… But Should Anyway

7. Ladda Land

Let’s face it, moving away from where we grew up is already terrifying enough. Having to move to another place; being away from all your friends, hiding spots and so much more, is a pretty stressing ordeal. But moving to a new house beside a murder house? That’s a completely different story.

Ladda Land tells the story of a simple family that moves to a new high class community called, Ladda Land. Everything was fine at first but their neighbors weren’t the best bunch. Sounds of clear abuse from the family across the street plagued the family every night and shortly after, grisly murders finally took place. The neighbors weren’t done with bugging the new residents of Ladda Land as their spirits begin haunting them and everyone else. Expect A LOT of jumpscares.

6. Ju-On: The Grudge

One of the stars during the heyday of J-horror is Ju-On: The Grudge. The film taught us how terrifying vengeful spirits can be. It also taught us that cabinets are pretty scary and sometimes, it’s best to check the history of a house before moving in. The film has a few sequels already but as always, the original is the best.

The film is told from different perspectives. Different individuals who managed to step inside a cursed house and from there, all that’s left was to wait for their demise. What’s more terrifying about The Grudge is that it makes it obvious that the characters in the film aren’t going to make it out alive.

There’s no work-around to the curse in the first film. All we’re left with is men and women scared to their wits in front of Toshio and her mother.

5. The Eye

Originating from Hong Kong, The Eye is a horror flick that doesn’t pit the protagonist against supernatural forces. In fact, the ghosts even seem to help the 20-year-old Mun, a blind violinist who has been given a chance to see thanks to a donor. However, the eyes that were give to her come with a few bonuses.

Thanks to the eyes donated to her, Mun can finally see the world around her. In addition that, she was also given the ability to foretell deaths whenever she sees a ghost roaming around. It’s like The Sixth Sense but there’s no twist to it. It was just a case of wrong eyes going to the wrong people.

There are a ton of memorable scenes in The Eye but those who’ve seen it can agree on the fact that they NEVER want to be alone in an elevator ever again.
