Well, this time I just got lucky. Really, we all did.

I had no plans to write about Asian horror cinema, or ghosts, for Monster Movie Month. But one of our reviewers, Colleen Wanglund, is an expert on Asian horror cinema, and in addition to the reviews that she wrote for us for Monster Movie Month, I discovered that she also wrote a fascinating article for the feminist online horror zine Ax Wound, “The Vengeful Feminine: “The Asian Female Ghost is a True Feminist”. Great writing, and worth reading. In addition to her critical analysis, Colleen names a number of Asian horror movies; librarians unfamiliar with Asian horror may want to take note, for the next time a patron asks “Do you have any movies like The Ring“?
