I've seen a few Korean Horror/Thriller films and enjoyed them.

I got into the genre because I was tired of western horror and the western remakes of j-horror put me off of that.

Of the movies I've seen, they're all fairly hit and miss. There are good ones, but there are also some very simple and predictable and cliched ones that aren't as enjoyable.

Are there any other fans of Korean film out there that can recommend some things?

IMDB isn't much help because all korean films pretty much have a rating of ~6 and only a few reviews done by people who clearly have no idea what they're talking about, and I don't know what sites I should go to in order to find more accurate ratings and reviews for asian films.

I'd like recommendations too. I've only watched random titles so I'm not very knowledgeable on the topic.

This one could be worth a look, though. I'm planning to watch it eventually.

It sounds like you wanted "good" movies, but this one is too strange to overlook

Pulgsari – North Korean Medieval Godzilla

Produced by Kim Jong Il and directed by a filmmaker they kidnapped from the south

What have you liked so far?
This list seems to cover a lot of the basics, although maybe you've already know about it.

This is a helpful list for asian horror in general, but I am more interested in the Korean aspect of things.

I like movies like Into the Mirror more than Ringu or Noroi.

To be frank, "horror" movies don't scare me any more, and are more like paranormal mystery stories than actual suspenseful films.
