The Grudge
 
Anyone see it yet?

Wow, I loved it. A good horror movie.

It's gotten a lot of mixed reviews, but I personally loved it. Go watch it.

I'd rather see the Japanese version... Coming out on DVD in the US November 9th...

But uhh... Does the little boy really meow in the movie?

People that I know have seen it. They all said they didn't like it. I usually love movies that get mixed reviews.

I heard a boy appears and then a cat. And then a little later a boy/cat hybrid meows.

Some of have said this is the horror to finally top The Excorsist? Can this assumption be true?

You know, a movie can be a good horror movie (as in, it scares you) and not be loaded with blood or gore (or excessive swearing or nudity or anything else that would earn it an "R").

Unless that was sarcastic. Then, nevermind.

generally if a movie is SCARY, it'll be at least PG13. they dont want to scare the crap out of 5 year olds. or DO they? [face_conspiracy]

Re: The Grudge
 
I've never been scared by a PG-13 movie. The Ring was PG-13 and that was horribly unscary. But, I don't enjoy watching horror movies at all really because getting scared doesnt seem like much entertainment to me.

Maybe I haven't seen any good ones. Recommend me some if you can :errr:

Well, if it is actual fear that it makes you feel and not just disgust from gore, then I would consider seeing this. That's is what alot of the problems with horro movies nowadays. Alot of them go just for gore, not actual fear.

I saw The Grudge tonight. All I can say is: WTF (especially the "ending")

Seriously, a new good horror movie will never happen. I admit there's a few scenes that kinda freaked me out in this movie, but overall it is just like The Ring... pretty dumb.

The thing about horror movies... I think every possible scary idea has already been used several times so they just aren't scary any more.

This movie sucked...

I agree...What is wrong with horror movies today and why can't anyone make a classic like The Exorcist, The Evil Dead, or The Shining these days? I love horror movies, and it's just sad to see that they've become more comic than legitimately scary these days. Don't get me wrong, I love the cheesy ones too, I'd really love another classic, scares me every time kind of horror movie. After watching The Shining again this Halloween my expectations are high, but it seems like somebody out there could do it...

I guess it's just a difference of opinions. I agree horror movies these days suck ass, but I enjoyed The Grudge. It didn't scare me, I just liked it. I thought the art direction was ubertastic too.

I thought the lead ups to each scenes individual climaxes were fantastic but each scene was ruined by the end of it being really stupid or exactly the same as the previous scene endings.

So each scene goes a little something like this:

scary scary SCARY retarded

I'm not a fan of horror movies myself, but on the opening night of The Grudge when i was working, two girls came out of the movie about halfway, white, and shaking, they needed help to get to the fountain to get some water, so i'd say it was pretty scary. And uhh, theres a sequel to the Ring coming out....i just noticed somebody mention the original, and i thought i'd...uhh..

My TV is a foot and a half from my bed. Not even.

That movie was hilarious once you get over it.

Me and Dylan watched the part where the closet opens with the decreped face like....10 times in a row, just playing it and skipping back...haha...good times.

Now if you excuse me Im off to go play Soccer....or for you Europeans, Football.
