Country: Japan

Japan, the country of contrasts, has one of the oldest and largest film industries in the world. In the last 100 years or so, Japanese cinema has produced works of great beauty, greater weirdness, and in the process has influenced scores of filmmakers around the world. One of the most important and influential filmmakers in the history of cinema, Akira Kurosawa directed 30 films that had an immense effect on the way the Japanese have viewed themselves as a nation and on the way the West has viewed Japan. His top Japanese movies include Rashomon, Kagemusha, Throne of Blood, and Seven Samurai. Japanese films about Samurai are very popular nowadays. Earlier samurai period pieces were more dramatic rather than action-based, samurai movies post World War II have become more action-based, with darker and more violent characters and the audience loves it. When speaking about Japanese films, one cannot fail to mention Anime. As a visual medium, it can emphasize visual styles, and many commentators refer to anime as an art form; it has recognition in Japan and throughout the world. In anime, Hayao Miyazaki directed Spirited Away in 2001, breaking Japanese box office records and winning several awards. Japanese horror films have slowly been gaining popularity over the years. Some of them have been granted American remakes. Here you can download anime, good Japanese movies, and Japanese horror movies.
