2. About time!
Zombies and nazis, two great horror tastes that go great together.

4. I thought that one was ok.
There's a Korean movie called R-Point that's similar in many ways.

During the Vietnam War, a South Korean army base begins receiving mysterious radio transmissions from a patrol that went missing six months earlier. A shell-shocked commanding officer (Woo-Sung Kam) and a ragtag military unit are sent into the desolate stretch of land known as R-Point to gather clues as to the whereabouts of the missing soldiers. What appeared to be a clear search and rescue mission turns into something far more terrifying than any battle.

It's not amazing or anything, but like Outpost it has it's moments, and was enjoyable over all.

5. i'll have to look for that one, i thought Outpost could have been a really good
movie, it did have potential and it was okay and still better than most the crap on tv.

14. The Asian stuff actually scares me.
It is an idiosyncrasy, I know. I like the idea that the films here present, well R-Point and Outpost at least. Basically you can be the meanest MF on the block, but then there is the intangible unknown. I find that fascinating and can watch the movie over and over.

Spanish language and beautifully filmed.

17. Here you go....
Don't even have to leave home.

And for this one you need to register to get to the movies, but it's worth it considering they have damn near every horror movie between 1970 and now (and a handful of older ones as well).

18. Asian Horror Films Are The Best.
US horror just does not "work" on me. I am left feeling thoroughly unscared. In part because they all tend to tie links to hauntings or some form of biblical monster.

22. Miike takashi, who did the first one, also did Ichi the Killer, which is highly fucked up.
That's what made me watch this one. Loved all three parts. :)

26. Doesn't it look like a blast? I'm already figuring it's going to be an overnight trip
to SF to see it unless the Crest or Tower shows it and i'm not counting on that.
