RunTime: 102 mins
Genre: Horror (Perhaps)
Rating: PG
Will Appeal To: Fans who still have hope in Japanese horror, and boyfriends who want to scare their girlfriends
All right. Raise your hands if you still have hope in Japanese horror movies. The Ring was scary, Dark Waters griping, Ju-on was okay, and others that came after it is laughable.
Boyfriends who want to bring your girlfriends for a good scare, and then hug them during the movie: Your girlfriends will feel bored and ogle at Edison Chen instead.
If you want to catch Sarah Michelle Gellar like me, sorry, she dies really soon. Don’t have to ask why and how. You know it.
The Grudge 2 is a remade of Japanese successful franchise Ju-On. Having the original Japanese director, or Hong Kong’s Edison Chen cannot save it. 3 school girls enter a cursed house, and ends up being haunted by wide-eyed mama in long hair and pale boy who goes “Meow!”
Anything new? Yes, there is: A Japanese lady who explained the story in English. The audience laughed. It reached No.1 in US box office. Hurray! Now, that’s an unsolvable curse.
The Grudge 2 - Repetitive, boring and even funny
