OK, I'm way into Asian horror, so here are some of my recommendations, and please note that although a number of these films have been remade by idea stealing american pig-dogs, I am ALWAYS refering to the Asian original!
The Ring Trilogy, obviously! Esp. Ring and Ring 0, Ring 2 is good, but not great.
Ju-On The Grudge - I swear that this is the single scariest film I have ever seen in my life, seriously, it took me like a year to completely get over the sheer terror incited by this film, so you have been warned!
Premonition - not strictly a horror, but great none the less.
The Eye - amazing!
Audition - a film from the ever fabulous and ever twisted Takashi Miike, the ending will make you squirm!
Versus - a comedy horror about Japanese zombies...brilliant!
Phone - a solid Korean horror.
A Tale of Two Sisters - some truly creepy moments.
R-Point - a Korean horror set during the war, quality!
Ichi The Killer - again not strictly a horror, but so full of much blood, guts and weirdness, you won't even notice!
Hope this helps dude! (^-^)

I like the "Japanese Classic Horror"-style films of Shindô Kaneto (Onibaba, Kuroneko) and Kawamoto Kihachirô (Oni, Dôjôji) but I'm defiantly not a horror fan in general – real life is more than scary enough for me! I suppose that I must like this specific genre of it so much because it allows me to experience the "fun" of horror (if you can call it that ) but the setting is so distanced from reality that it what happens in it can only be scary, not disturbing.
