I usually avoid Asian movies because they are way too weird for Western psyche, and I also don't watch movies where "genre" actors (i.e. those that typically play the same type of roles like villains, comic/drama characters, etc.) are trying to experiment with their way of acting and doing something completely opposite to what they usually do. Like Jim Carry's dramatic roles.
Zombies.
Other than that, I'll watch pretty much anything if the characters are likable and the story (and the writing!) is good, no matter what the genre is.
Although I have to say that I can't watch the new Star Trek films anymore after the blatant disrespect for the source material. Same goes for a show like Under the Dome, which is based on a terrific Stephen King novel and just runs it into the ground and changes it into a never ending stream of mundane drivel in order to make as many episodes as they possibly can.
