Japanese cinema has a long history, dating back to the end of the 19th century. Over the years it has produced classics such as The Seven Samurai, Rashomon and Tokyo Story.

Some of the finest animated movies (anime) come from Japan. Japanese anime is certainly not just for kids, some highly sophisticated adult animations exist. Japan is also famous for its horror movies (J-horror). Relying more on storyline, direction and cinematography than special effects the results are often shocking, but unforgettable.
