Ju-On (2002)
(The Grudge)
Country: JAP
Technical: col 92m
Director: Takashi Shimizu
Cast: Megumi Okina, Misaki Ito, Misa Uehara
Synopsis:
A house investigated by social services is the residing place of a curse which passes from victim to victim, a progress which we witness inexorably to its downbeat conclusion.
Review:
A series of well-orchestrated shocks and atmospherically staged sequences do not constitute a classic ghost story, especially when one has no time to identify with any of the characters, some of whom are confusingly similar in appearance to western audiences.
