    The Grudge = 40 Million$$$$$$

    How The fuck did they get 40 Million in one weekend?
    The trailer convinced me not to watch...

    Who watched it here? Any good?

    it was the scariest fuckin movie I've ever seen. i saw it with three girls and I think I was about as scared as them.

    japanese ppl go over the top with everything. put it this way, watch a slasher film from Japan and ur disgusted, watch a horror film and you're terrified.

      Two thumbs down from Ebert and that other guy...

      They even threw in a line that this was a 'get up and walk out' movie.

        I saw it on opening night (Friday). It wasn't bad. Pretty typical modern horror movie. Nothing really special but it didn't suck.

            I really liked the japanese version...it had that "atmosphere" to it that only asian horror movies seems to have...i'll watch the remake for sure...

            but i'm not really worried..i'm a big horror fan!
            mmm my sig was too big... no more cool animation

              Heard about that.

              Check this out:

              $40 mil in a few days :: now that's the way to make $$$$$$$$$$$

              Edit: What's cool is it was a low budget film; they rarely do well.

                From the look of the commercial, I thought it would be something like "darkness falls" which really sucked...

                    Are you on crack? That movie was excellent. Come on, the Tooth Fairy fone bad. That's creepy as hell.

                      They had a good story/concept, but they fucked it up!

                        Probably, but I am drunk and in the horror movie mood. I was actually thinking of putting in the Darkness Falls DVD before I read this thread. I am easily amused. I'm sure I'll just end up watching Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back for the 1000th time.

                            is it the one with the buffy girl?

                            hollywood's running out of ideas and going to asia for inspiration. but hollyood versions tend to be less believable and less gruesome
