Sarah Michelle Gellar (the lovely "Buffy") in a US remake of a Japanese horror movie.

Although, unlike the Ring remake, I think this one was directed by the original Japanese director.


It's meant to be quite good. Out on Friday.

I was going to see it. I like Japanese films, and my brother said it was quite good. It is getting slated left, right and centre thought by critics it seems. Dunno if it is best to watch the original first, but apparently this version is supposed to be quite faithful to the original

Yeah, you'd think it would be fairly faithful if it has the original director.


I've got a mate who works for Film 4, & he often gets to see stuff early. He said The Grudge is great, at least as good as The Ring, & that SMG actually manages to act quite well in it.


Definitely something I want to see.
