1) I think the main point why the author made this book is to introduce Japanese culture which is sub divided and  focus on their films and focus to a niche genre called Horror. They discuss about what are the history of horror film in japan and how it grows year by year.

This book focuses on the origins, themes and conventions of Japanese horror cinema from 1950 to date. It is divided into two broad sections, the first of which considers the origin of contemporary Japanese horror film during and in the aftermath of the Second World War. The forced modernisation of Japan, while largely an economic success, had a profound social effect on
Japan’s sense of nationhood and identity as different from the West. Japan’s incomplete modernity is often embodied within the figure of the pre-modern monster, a revenant of traditional Japanese culture and mythology, in the horror
film, which threatens apocalypse and disaster.

Japanese horror influences horror cinema around the world - just look at all the (not always great) American remakes! Everyone knows Ringu (Ring, 1998) and Ju-On: The Grudge (2002) as the pillars of Japanese horror. For that reason (and because they are on every horror recommendation list), they will not be included on this one, though they are still iconic and must-watch classics!

IMO, Japanese horror triumphs over Western horror in its nuanced and unique treatment of themes and scares. It's more psychological, twisted, creepy, and not always straightforward. Similar to South Korean horror, there's more of a focus on pushing boundaries, and the films masterfully show restraint and build suspense until you're no longer on the edge of your seat but pretty much falling off of it.

Japan's horror cinema reflects its rich culture and tends to focus on yūrei (ghosts), yōkai (demons), onryō (vengeful spirits), and the breakdown of families (family is an important aspect of Japanese culture).

That said, it's not all ghosts - Japan isn't afraid to get wacky and bloody and there's plenty to choose from for fans of blood, gore, and fast-paced action-filled horror.

Ring and The Grudge's iconic status should clue you in that there is so much more to Japan's horror cinema that you're missing out on! So grab your favorite blankie and settle in for your official starter pack to Japanese horror. Beware - it gets pretty dark.

3. Tag (2015)

Sedic Deux Inc.

An unconventional, quirky, and feminist horror film, this piece has one of the most absurd opening scenes you can think of in cinema: A schoolgirl, Mitsuko, is on a bus with her classmates when everyone else is promptly sliced in half by a deadly gust of wind, leaving her the only survivor. After this, we follow Mitsuko into utterly bloody chaos as she fights for survival in increasingly violent and wacky scenarios wherein her classmates suffer horrific deaths and she must figure out what the hell's going on. There are teachers wielding machine guns, and a groom with a pig's head. It explores the objectification of women, and the story is shocking, creative, and weird. You won't regret giving this sinfully underrated film a watch.

Watch it on Amazon Prime and DramaCool.

Twin Co. Ltd.

The best Japanese horror films are the ones based on the country's very own urban legends (they're just super entertaining, OK?). Kuchisake-onna, is a popular one, about the ghost of a beautiful woman who was mutilated by a jealous lover. She kills her victims by carving their mouths like hers with scissors. Eeeep. The film follows a teacher, Noboru, who tries to solve a series of child abduction cases. When he realizes Kuchisake-onna is behind them, he discovers he may have a disturbing connection to the ghost. Cue plot twist! The film isn't afraid to get super dark either (there's child abuse and children being killed with scissors). It's a great ghost movie to spend the night with.

Watch it on DramaCool.

13. Pulse (also known as Kairo, 2001)

Toei Company

This one's directed by Takashi Miike, the director of Audition, so you already know it's gonna be twisted as heck. Contrary to the tame English title, the original Japanese title " Kuime" has no direct translation but roughly means "the woman who devours flesh," which is far superior and should tell you all you need to know. The film takes the statement "life imitates art" literally as actors prepare for the stage production of a ghost story. Obsession, jealousy, and drama help blur the line between fiction and reality, and star lead Miyuki begins having trouble separating the play from real life. It's gory, psychological, and puts you in the same spot as Miyuki, wondering what's real.

Watch it on YouTube, Amazon Prime, and Shudder.

24. Jigoku (also known as The Sinners of Hell, 1960)

Enjoy scaring the wits out of yourself! I've included many of my own faves here, and if you think there's anything I missed, let me know below and I shall add them to my watch list right away! Now, excuse me while I go curl up in my blankets and start this Japanese horror marathon.
