At this time The Grudge is big in America, a film with a GIANT connection to this one. Since I've found originals to be often equal to remakes I decided to give Ju-On a try. I must say that I was disappointed and not in about equal amounts. While there are quite a few thrills and the film keeps you interested for a long time, it has major disadvantages as well. There neither a beginning to the film (as in what happened to start the chain of events) and no real ending, making it almost safe to say that there isn't really a story. Another thing is, that the thing with the cats just does not get cleared up in the film. I mean, what the heck was that all about??? The last thing to annoy me in this film? In spite of choosing a creepy / funny ending after the last kill the director chose to add 5 to 10 minutes to the film in order to introduce the sequel. A film with lots of potential, it just doesn't deliver it all in the end.
