Another thing is that there is no pointless sex right in the middle of something... you know, something that disrupts the plotline. Don't mind me too much on this last one, I don't like any of the american horror films.

American horror films are supposed to have pointless sex in the middle it to teach young american kids that sex before getting married leads to death buy a guy in a hockey mask. Problem with American horror today is they tried to make it serious and the old school stuff ment to be soft core porn with gore lol. I see a lot of new age horror that look like college film projects that bring be back to the old days of B movie horror. ahhhhhh the studio stuff sucks =(
I have not seen a lot Japanese Horror but it seems like it was made to scare you. After me and my girlfriend watched the Grudge and then watched Japanese Version we decied we like the japanese version better. My girl friend did notice this all the films we see are by the same writer and the plots are very simlar thus haveing the same effect and thus we are become numb to Japanese horror we have seen. Where any of the other movies you mention writen by the same guy that did the ring,grudge and dark water??? looking for something different style of japanese horror. =) i am numb to the the wet little girl ghost killing people.
Eventual Japanese Horror will die here in the states because the movies they are remakeing are all the plot and it will become just like the old american horrors have be come bastardized by studios.
