Japanese director Shimizu may be the only director in history to have helmed a pair of Hollywood remakes of his two biggest hit films and managed to screw up both of them. Go to Full Review

Low calorie horror, it's propped up by set-piece shocks familiar from any of the other five incarnations of Ju-On: The Grudge. Go to Full Review

If you're in the mood for a good scary movie - one that mixes old fashioned frights with a novel storytelling approach - you need look no further than "The Grudge 2." Go to Full Review

.5/4
Takashi Shimizu telegraphs scares to the point of numbness. Peek under a table? There's the boy! The room a bit too quiet, is it? It's the girl! All that's frightening are the actors' pained facial expressions, suggesting an epidemic of farty indigestion. Go to Full Review
Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed 04/29/2009
It's a random series of attempted frights that fails at every turn. Go to Full Review
