Other Countries Thriller Movies #2

It's time for me to talk about the movie Ju-on. It's also Japaness movie with The Ring(the movie that I introduced before.) and it was one of the famous horror movie.

The movie Ju-On was released at 11 February 2000 at Japan, and later it was exported to many other countries. In USA, the movie Ju-On is remaked as 'The Grudge' at 2004. Actually the title of the films translates roughly to The Curse or The Grudge.

This movie, the story begins with a man, who murdered his family at the upstairs room. Several year passed, this house finds a new owner, but the curse of rage survives there and destroys those who come into contact with it. Welfare worker Rika Nishina is called in to investigate after complaints were reported that an elderly, bed-ridden woman named Tokunaga is left alone in the home. As Rika approaches the home, she feels a strange and eerie atmosphere surrounding the home, but continues on with her job. She soon finds the old lady, sitting alone and talking to "someone." The social worker taking care of the elderly mother is soon immersed in this curse and the hauntings that persist.

This movie give us a fear with a young boy at the poster. And it's more horrorful because those fearful events occur at the house, where we sleep and act mostly. This movie was so famous and as the result, They made Ju-On2 which is released at 5 September, 2003 in Japan. In Korea Ju-On has released as a "Ju-On theater Ver." at 2002.

And this is the scene that people mostly get fear at this movie.
