she said hello, my name is Karen and asked his name (i think) the boy said his name was Toshio. yeah...burn the house down...see if it helps.... yeah that noise unsettles a lot of people, it's called a death rattle it's the sound our throats make as we take our last breathe, she does that because of how she died.

react THE GRUDGE 2 and THE GRUDGE 3 !! ❤️

That guy who plays Matthew, you were talking seeing him on other movies was also Ethan on the famous TV show "Lost!"

They got this from the movie JUON. Watch the Asian and American one back then.

[@maninedoow5895]

Now you have to watch The Grudge 2.

[@masudaharris6435]

The point of the film is that you can't beat the curse, so everyone dies. Lovely actress Fuji Takako plays the ghost in the early Juon/The Grudge films, having the athleticism to slither down stairs. It is really not easy to do. I have never liked the title "The Grudge" as we tend to use that word for things like "grudge match" and it doesn't really have a horror connotation.

[@kangjhha]

you can beat the curse but you must summon Sadako by reacting to Sadako vs. Kayako next😅

[@lessismore8533]

Well the Title “the grudge” DID come from the original movie called “Juon the Grudge”. Titles are there for a reason so you probably just don’t understand. Grudge means “holding resentment on someone instead of moving on. Maybe do some research on the ORIGIN of this film so it’ll make more sense to you. Kayako is an Onyro or vengeful spirit seeking revenge for the wrongs she suffered during her lifetime. Vengeance and the word “grudge” go hard and hand, so the titles does make sense

You should check out Shutter (2008), starring Joshua Jackson. It's a remake of a Thai horror movie of the same name that came out in 2004. I'm a new subscriber btw

[@lessismore8533]

The Shutter remake is disappointing compared to the original

[@JJgibson1]

Sarah Michelle Gellar also played in a movie called I Know What You Did Last Summer….. Watch that! She also had one scene in Scream 2.

Haven’t seen either, but I did forget to mention cruel intentions!

trying to explain this film to someone who doesn;t know the context of Japanese folklore and spirits is kind of hard. But i will try; the Japanese believe that if someone dies in certain ways...in anger...in hatred...it leaves a dark stain on the earth...something you can't get rid of...a curse. the place that person died will be cursed forever...and whoever comes into contact with that place will also be cursed...that curse will follow you...until you are killed by it. regarding the Karen thing...ugh i know two women called karen and they are perfectly normal people. this is why i don;t use that phrase for those annoying anti social women...i call them "cluckers" because they can't stop squawking
