Japanese Horror

Here are some images from Japanese based horror films such as the grudge and the ring, which the Japanese version is called 'Ringu.' The film Ringu is a 1998 Japanese horror film Hideo Nakata, adapted from the novel ring by Kōji Suzuki. This film is considered the most frightening horror film in Japan according to a survey. These films i feel have a link to dolls and how i could design a doll inspired look/shoot with the long hair over the face, pale skin and big eyes etc. The two images at the bottom are not based from Japanese horror films but reminded me of these kind of horror films still with a girl placed in the corner of a room with her face covered making you anticipate the unknowing of what she will look like. The bottom image I love, I like the whole movement within the photo. Even though it doesn't show anything creepy or scary it has that element of fear with how the hair has been blown out, the angle and the styling of the girl within it.
