Ju-on: The Grudge Reviews

external linkmakes zero sense and basically repeats itself for an hour and half. However, the goal of a horror film is to make the audience uneasy and afraid; and Ju-On comes through with spades in that department. In the end, I do recommend checking it out if only to see that I haven't turned into a preteen girl and that it is indeed creepier than hell. Just don't expect it to be coherant along the way.

--Mike Skinner (Diabolical-Dominion.com)
external linkSlightly better than the original, but only in terms of scares. A little overhyped with all the claims that it's a really scary flick, but it does have a lot of creepy moments. Pretty much a different story than the original, so you don't necessarily need to see the first movies to understand this one. Worth a check, but I'd recommend viewing the first two movies before seeing this anyway to get a feel for the series. [read review] 7/10

external link"Ju-on," like genre faves "Ringu" and "The Eye," is best experienced in a dank basement with a few friends or a significant other. Or better yet, by yourself. Even the most experienced fright-fan will find her/himself driving to the corner store, or heading over to a friends house after viewing "Ju-on," just to try to get some of the final images and sounds eliminated from their battered psyche.
