The Grudge

I can't believe Sam Raimi is saying that this is the scariest movie of all time. Oh well, maybe because he produced it. And this is supposed to be exact like the Japanese version (called Ju-On), so I guess it's all the same, well, except that the Japanese version probably doesn't make us believe that all this happened because a woman became obsessed with Bill Pullman.

But really, I didn't like The Grudge at all.
The movie had lots of scares, or jumps followed by laughs actually, which happened a lot of times. And the really bad thing was the score, it was really telling you in advance when the scares would come and you'd jump and then laugh.

And overall, I didn't like the story and its connecting of the characters with the backstory and the Grudge.
I really didn't get why he wanted to kill them all. At first I thought that he was killing everybody that went into the house, but some other cops went it there and they didn't die. And that one security guard had nothing to do with the house.
Then I thought it was about everybody that had something to do with the Japanese family that lived there before, but the Grudge didn't kill Pullman's wife.
So I really didn't get why was he doing it.

Being PG13 really hurt the movie as we don't get to see how any of the characters die and of course, no gore, no nudity and no insults. And it's not like it needed to be there, but come on, it's a horror movie with dead people (a jaw removed from a girl's head for example), a shower scene and ghosts, those things should've been there.

It hasn't been a really good horror movie in a while, and this one wasn't it, just because they put together scenes that make you jump and scream it doesn't mean that the movie is good.
