Roy Lee brought the rights to Japanese horror, and sold them to the American studios.
Japanese horror does not have a linear narrative, but the film relies on the curse of whoever enters the house will die, an urban legend! however in my focus film the Grudge, the cinematography is beautifully shot, with not much speech involved, because it makes the normal cheesy horror films look so unrealistic, whereas this makes the film seem sureal.
The reason why western audiences may enjoy j-horror is for the theory escapsim from there own horrors in life and being able to watch a film with a unfamiliar society- the fear of the unknown which brings a pesky tension.
Some audience’s believe Hollywood has ruined the authentic Japanese horror.
What do you think ???
