60 of 231 · most liked firstPicking a (not so) random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Year 2, Day #324 "Ju-On: The Grudge" (Takashi Shimizu/2002) October wouldn't quite be complete without Shimizu's creepy vision of the curse that won't quit. Great film and the perfect time to check it out.

Tonight it's JU-ON: THE GRUDGE (2002, Takashi Shimizu). We just had the under-the-covers scene which instantly gave me a new fear when I watched this way too young. 👁️👁️

positive · AI labelView post →Want something crazier? Look at the movie "Ju-On: The Grudge". The 2002 original. Not only did they record the creepy kid monster sounds with a CRT in the background (NTSC one) but you can also see them pitch bending the recording to make it creepier. (my original finding when I made AU DVD)

neutral · AI labelView post →🌙: the scariest ghost movie for me was The Grudge. ☀️: I find that so interesting. Perhaps we fear what is reflected I’m still trying to unpack what that means
neutral · AI labelView post →My favorite “proper use of a grocery store in a movie” is the US version of THE GRUDGE. That scene where Sarah Michelle Gellar is in the grocery store in Japan, feeling increasingly isolated and alone because she can't even do the simple act of shopping, is something felt by every expat in Japan.

negative · AI labelView post →Today's movie in the deezcord is Ju-On, but I'm on the fence about whether I should show Ju-On: The Curse (first movie) or skip straight to Ju-On: The Grudge (third movie), since that works fine as a stand alone and that's the one the American remake is based on HRM...
neutral · AI labelView post →The Grudge (US version). Gave me nightmares for weeks. I was 11 and had never seen a real scary movie before lol. Thought I was real tough but NOPE
positive · AI labelView post →I was a super weird kid whose comfort movie was Scream; slashers just never scared me. Then I watched the Grudge and I couldn't sleep without hiding beneath the covers for a year straight. 😭 Supernatural horror is so mucu scarier than real people to me.
positive · AI labelView post →Watched The Grudge movies(the American ones) tonight and when the survivor from the first movie died in the second, I started laughing and Tempest just looked at me so concerned..
neutral · AI labelView post →What horror movie do you think everyone should watch at least once? Ju-On- The Grudge The original Japanese versions (1+2) are way better than the U.S. adaptations,which are a little more campy, but still does the movie(s) justice.

neutral · AI labelView post →Yeah, the downside of her doing more of the work is that her ex becomes barely a character, lmao. They also added a lot more to the videotape and dropped the bit about Sadako being psychic, neither of which meaningfully change the plot, tbh Ju-On: the Grudge is a better film than both, though

neutral · AI labelView post →9. JU-ON: THE GRUDGE (2002) For the J-Horror curious, arguably the definitive film in the subgenre. Sleep with the Lights On terrifying but patient too, and codifies many of the recurring themes of the J-Horror boom.
