Ju-On: The Grudge

Ju-On: The Grudge

2002

Takashi Shimizu's movie continues Asia's increasingly fine tradition of modern horror films. The premise is that if a building has endured a singular horror, it absorbs it and returns it to those who visit. A series of seemingly unconnected vignettes, all with a suitably satisfying jolt (including a shower scene Hitchcock would have admired) are slowly pulled together by police investigating the strange events.

When a grudge from the dead passes to the living - Who is safe?
