    Yes, that's the Korean poster and not the original Japanese one. I didn't edit this video and didn't notice myself when I checked over it. Not worth re-uploading as I'm just boarding a plane and wanted to get this out before I left. Sorry!
    EDIT: Shitty plane wifi isn't letting me update the endcards so just check these out:

    • @renaxakai3

      That reminds me of when I went to see Twilight with a group of friends. When "Edward" first appeared on the screen, most of the theater started fangirling, and one person somehow yelled over top of them "Shut the hell up!", everyone shut up. That was great.
      Edit: I did not pay for my ticket, and ended up bored by the movie. But that was a great experience in a theater.

    Ok, to this movie's credit, the original Grudge's curse worked the same way. Whoever entered the cursed house brought the curse home with them, and it's implied that anyone entering any newly cursed place also transferred the curse. That's why *spoilers* the final shot in the original is an empty, abandoned city.

  • @6235river
    @6235river 5 лет назад +4

    The entire movie was taxing to sit through but what actively made me mad is when Cho's character was on the phone with his wife as he was babysitting the ghost girl because her parents weren't home, and because like half the day went by his wife asked him why he hasn't called the cops yet (A GOOD QUESTION) but before that plothole could be addressed, she suddenly felt the baby kick and the conversation immediately changed to that instead of addressing why he'd been sitting in the house all day until midnight with a child whose parents have gone AWOL without contacting somebody about it.

    2:20 that's literally the end of the original japanese grudge, though
    the curse populates out of control, a new grudge starting up wherever the victim of the last grudge died, and eventually it gets everyone ever. So, for this talking point, I'd say that the film just follows a particular branch of the self-replicating effect of the grudge, and while it is happening over the course of the film these other instance you are wondering about are probably themselves happening simultaneously offscreen.
    Not really a defense of the movie, I haven't seen 2020 yet and it looks like garbage, just a defense of the point.

    • @Khenfu_Cake
      @Khenfu_Cake 5 лет назад +2

      There actually were two sequels for the 2004 remake that basically did that whole transferring the curse thing too. I'm not entirely sure but I think this film is actually meant to be a sort of side story to The Grudge 2 and 3 (remake sequels) than an actual new remake.
      The first remake sequel was garbage though. Didn't watch the third, only heard a plot synopsis of it and the current one looks like trash too so...

    • @robertyeah2259
      @robertyeah2259 Год назад +1

      It is an established rule, but the movies (the three American remakes do the same thing) dont make it consistent. It just seems random what victims become a new curse and which ones dont.
      The Japanese one ended with empty city streets and hundreds of missing posters blowing in the wind. If the curse moves it should kill everyone, but every movie after Ju-On: The Grudge is lazy with it and uses it as a plot device instead of a natural consequence

    Isn't that how the curse worked in the original? Like you'd go into the house, get cursed, the curse kills you, and then the place you died becomes cursed as well. Whoever visits that new place can carry it and the curse spreads and spreads until the end where the whole town is desolate.

    I adored the 2002 and 2004 versions of this film. I agree that they're not "masterpiece films" but they're my favorite kind of horror movie. The kind of horror movie that sticks with you because of the visuals and feeling.
    Also I completely agree about the house in the 2004 version. I definitely feel like I could navigate that house easily, they filmed it in a way where it feels like you've personally been there cause the space is easy to understand.
    I saw the 2004 grudge at the movie theater when I was 12. I was by far the most scared I had ever been while watching a movie. I vividly remember the end when she crawls down the stairs, I was curled up on my seat and my hands were shaking I was so scared. It was awesome.
    That movie has a fond place in my heart. Too bad they shit the bed remaking it!
