I have to also say I didn't find the Grudge at all scary or even atmospheric. Ju-On had a much better atmosphere (weird seeing it's the same director) that it American counterpart which to me at times seemed more rushed. There was no tension building, no creepiness and not one scare the entire movie.
Ju-On wasn't scary either, it was pretty creepy but not scary. As has been said already, there's not much in the way of truly scary horror movies anymore. 28 Days Later was good, had some major holes in it but was a different take on a zombie flick. Dog Soldiers rocked, wasn't scary but was creepy and eerie much more than I felt in the grudge.
Of course, the greatest horror movie of all time is The Blair Witch Project! ;)
