CommentsContains scenes of horror.
The material contains very strong impact themes which are presented in a context of a psychological mystery drama. Themes explore nightmares, paranoiac fears, existential curses, occult visions, supernatural imperfections, carried through centuries, living in a haunted house, being cursed by a deadly ghost leading to psychotic conditions, being possessed by evil spirits, senseless killings, police investigations, being mentally unstable, torture, protection of loved ones, death and survival. Themes are grotesque and extremely frightening with a very strong psychological threat and menace. Themes would keep the viewer in constant panic, shock because they are palpable, realistic, chilling, intense, desensitizing, filled with dark horrific tone likely to be distressing and disturbing. Themes are amplified by eerie sound effects, lighting and with high resolution. Dark horror themes are unhinging, sustained throughout likely to cause psychological harm, Themes cannot be suitable for children younger than 18 years.

Tomatometer quote iconDull and derivative, the rebooted Grudge wastes a talented cast and filmmaker on watered-down scares that may leave viewers nursing grievances of their own.
