The Grudge 2 (2006)


Just as, if not more, frightening then the first, The Grudge 2 is another good effort to make you shit yourself. This film sees the spread of the curse amongst different people who have come into contact with the house, one of them being Michelle Gellar's sister who tries to put a stop to it. Does she succeed? Let's face it, it's the grudge - so probably not! You see plenty more of the creepy girl and her son and, just like the first, there's many more jumpy and tense scenes which make you want to scream 'AAAAAAHHHHH SHE'S COMING!!'

The only annoyance that I would say with The Grudge films, is that when 'she' is coming, you really just want someone to kick her in the face. But I guess she is pretty fucking scary, and I don't really think I'd want my foot touching her.

I also don't advise watching The Grudge 3 as it really lets down the first two films. The scary girl is played by someone different and her makeup is done differently, so it feels really inconsistent, and it's just generally not as scary. Probably down to the fact that someone different directed it other than Takashi Shimizu.
