Review of The Grudge (2004) by Julio S — 23 Apr 2015
The Grudge is a strange and complex mixture of Lost In Translation and Don't Look Now, in which an ancient curse plagues a Japanese house and all those who inhabit it. This American remake isn't anywhere near as bad as it could have been and is faithful to the original and continues the weird Japanese fetish for entanglements of black ghoul hair and extremely pale children.
Quite memorable and definitely worth a watch, but the film's confusing back-and-forth plot and disappointing conclusion let it down.
