Movie Review - The Grudge

Short version: Move over, Sahara and XXX-2, you've got company. Treat her well, OK?

Slightly longer version:
  1. Most of the horror/suspense scenes take place at the same location, with the same pattern being repeated over and over - unsuspecting victim-to-be makes his/her way up a stairway to the haunted room, looks in every fricken direction expect the one from which the thing/danger springs, end of character.

  2. There is no variety in the scare tactics employed: just sudden noise and some disgusting gurgling sounds.

  3. Somebody has a hair fetish, that's for sure.
