I am a huge fan of The Grudge. (Not Ju-on, or double jew (ju-on 2)) I'm also a huge fan of the Ring, One Missed Call, Darkness Falls, The Eye (japanese one), Pulse, Shutter, and others. I find these movies incredibly, incredibly entertaining. And I require more of them.

Do you know of any other Grudge movies? Japanese Horror movies where cell phones and video tapes kill you? Please guide me to more of these awesome movies. (also the grudge 2, though seemingly marketed ONLY for me, sucked huge donkey boners) I will also accept movies like When A Stranger Calls.

I watched The Ring for the first time the other day and I thought it was really bad!  God damn I am in love with Naomi Watts though.

Also my knowledge of American remakes of goofy Japanese horror movies is very limited, sorry.

Is The Descent a remake? That movie was decent.

The Grudge is an absolutely terrible movie, I would've left the theater but I wasn't the one driving so I just made origami with my ticket stub.

It's not a joke topic, and I am completely aware they are awful movies. That's kind of the point. I have such a great time watching these movies. I'm not looking for movies like The Descent, which was actually pretty decent. I want movies like the grudge. Movies that actually had a budget and completely sucked balls. I don't want low-budget "PLAN 9 FROM OUTER HEEELLLL" horror movies or whatever.

Didn't a lot of people like The Ring though?  Like I remember all these movies generally being regarded as pretty shitty, but I feel like The Ring was considered good.  Was it?  Either way it sucked but I thought people liked it.

I honestly thought that the Ring had a pretty creepy atmosphere about it and that it was better than most other horror movies out at the time (except for the last 5 mins).

My cousin wanted to see The Grudge when it came out so we did. The three things I learned from that movie was..

1. Apparently that sound you can make in the back of your throat is scary.
2. Don't trust pale Asian kids.
3. How bad some movies really are.. And Sarah Michelle Geller is still pretty hot.

The Ring 2 actually made me fall asleep and the original had a New Zealand guy in it.. Plus it wasn't that bad. The Descent is that movie with that group of woman who go underground and get stuck an shit right?

She's boss in 21 Grams. She's also in Eastern Promises.

Yeah Eastern Promises is really really good minus the ending which blows.  Check it out though the rest of the movie is great.

Also fuck the rest of GW, Naomi Watts is mine.

The Ring was good. The other Japanese Horror remakes that followed was not, however (*shudders at 'Shutter'*). Darkness Falls was good for about the first ten minutes, then it quickly became a boring, forgettable, run-of-the-mill horror movie (as with Dead Silence).

I liked The Grudge when I first saw it in the theater because the audience there was hilarious. When I saw it at home, however...it wasn't really anything special. The Grudge 2 was beyond horrible, and I can't remember anything about The Ring 2 at all, aside from a bathroom scene with lots of water flying around.

So basically the Ring was good because it had one or two decent original ideas and then like 5700 different movies came out that were like the exact same thing with nothing new or enjoyable

horror movies are such a great genre

also Ring 2 is confusing because it was directed by the guy who did Ringu right but it wasn't a sequel to Ringu it was a sequel to Ring and wasn't the sequel to Ringu completely different?

I liked Ringu, and I tolerated the Ring and Ju-On, but otherwise I've never really been a fan of these movies.

I'm basically just posting to say how awesome Tau's sig is.
