Ju-On The Grudge 2 (2003) re-watched this to refresh myself with the story and loved it even more this time around. Looking forward to seeing the more recent Ju-On's asap

I need to give that one another try... I really liked both Ju-On and the remake (probably because Shimizu did both of them), but I really had a hard time getting into Ju-On 2.

Dark Water.

Fair enough-maybe you would prefer Ju-On Old lady In White (2009)? which I've just seen-I absolutely adored it as much as I did Ju-on The Grudge 2 (which I enjoyed LOADS more on the second viewing as I also had a hard time with it the first time I watched it). It is shorter though, only an hour and wow they don't half cram a lot into that hour-not a second is wasted and it goes further into the sinister supernatural territory hinted at in Ju-on 2 plus it stands well by itself so you don't need to have seen all the other ones besides the original Ju-On-The Grudge which is referenced in one scene. Also it looks beyond 'the girl ghost with long black hair extensions' ripped off from Ringu that made the original movie less fresh and inventive as it could have been. This completely makes up for that and gives you a new ghost (amongst other things) to be scared of.

I still need to see Ju-On The Curse 1 and 2 and Ju-On The Gril In Black and excited about them :)

Well I'm sold! I'll add it to my Netflix queue. :)

Sector 7 (2011)

Not sure whether its for the English dubbed version or not, but it seems the screenplay was poorly done with a pretty average plot structure like an Asylum or sy-fy channel monster flick. At the end, for its good production value, a faceless weird looking creature & that hot chick on the lead; it passed the 'entertaining' mark for me.

>>: B-

The Raid: Redemption (2011)

Nice action flick from Indonesia.

>>: B+

Tomie: Replay (2000)

As usually slow burn but better than earlier installment, at least there are some typical Asian creepy moments.

>>: B-

Faaaaaaaaaaart!!

The franchise sucks dunkey balls. Period.

Should've stopped after the first horribly dull sequal.

I tried watching "Thirst" (2009) for a second time, managed an hour and ten minutes this time but still couldn't watch it all the way through. Apallingly unwatchable.
