Ju-on the original film, 4 March 2005
10/10
Author: gc_13 from United States

This film's originality is lost with the current Americanized version (The Grudge) The sound effect when the mother appears to the unaware will haunt you and stay with you long after viewing, and you may want to watch it again to see what you missed the first time. There are many details in this film. Ju-on is a horror film that is worth buying unseen.. It is that good!! You will think twice after watching before entering a home, Look at cats in a different way, and hope that you never encounter a place with a Ju-on attached to it. These spirits are not the type you want to communicate with and are best (if possible)avoided. I highly recommend watching and buying Ju-on.
