OMG - I saw "The Grudge" last night!
YIKES ! It's gotta be the scariest ghost story movie I've EVER seen! I'm SO glad I didn't see it in a theater! I'm sure I'd have screamed out loud several times!

:wow: :scared: :wow: :scared: :wow:

2. unfortunately my wife and I did see it in the theater, along with what
seemed like the ENTIRE 7th and 8th grade class from every school in Dublin.

I can still hear the screaming.

3. Feh, go find and rent the original
Its actually a series of 4 or 5 movies. The second one is probably the best. The Buffy adaption is a compilation of some of the more interesting bits from the originals.

9. Looks right
The series is called Juon. The Grudge is the one that set off the remake with Buffy. The only bad one really is the first movie. They didn't have their mojo together yet. Second movie and on though they really get to you.

My GF couldn't walk alone anywhere in the house for a week after we saw this flick.

5. What was it about that movie!
I haven't been so frightened since I was a child! I even came back home to pick up the DVD to return it to Blockbuster because I don't want it in my house longer than it needs to be!

10. I watched it last week...
I was expecting it to be

really really really scary but it was only
really really scary, so I was a little disappointed.

Trivia question: What other Grudge cast member appeared in the Buffy TV series? And in what role?
