hey horror film lovers,
do you know of any countries that developed a horror subgenre of their own?
I’ve got giallo (Italy) and kaidan-eiga (Japan), maybe fantaterror (Spain) and New French Extremity (France)…

what else comes to mind?

Closing this theme with a dive into cruel jidai-geki — tales of betrayal, blood, and broken honor. Not all are samurai films, but those included cut deep.

One striking trope in samurai cinema: disability. Zatoichi (blind), the Mute Samurai, Tange Sazen (one-armed)… iconic portrayals.
September 13, 2025 at 7:36 PM
There’s a whole tradition of female-led chanbara within samurai cinema — Lady Sazen, Crimson Bat, Lady Snowblood, Quick-Draw Okatsu… icons with unmatched style and power.

What I love most about this list — beyond the great selection — is how the films are classified by the era they’re set in, letting you explore from Muromachi to Edo. Brilliant work.
