The Ultimate List of the Greatest Japanese Horror Films

I've always been a big fan of the horror genre of film. Nothing else has intrigued me as much nor stayed with me long after the movie is over. But Japanese horror is a whole nother game. It should be it's own genre because it's unique enough to separate itself from western films, even when they try to remake it. The atmosphere, the mood, the creepiness, the weird and disturbingness. Japanese horror does all of these like no other. So every few years i come up with a list of the best Japanese horror films. But this time i went really big. I picked out 50 of what i think is the greatest Japanese horror movies ever made. This is the ultimate list. And it was mainly compiled by you guys in the comments. So if there's any i miss please leave them in the comments and they may appear in the next list. Anyway enjoy!
