The Grudge. 2004.
An American nurse living in Tpokyo, goes to care for a dementia patient at her home and is exposed to a supernatural curse.
American's seem to have a thing for remaking horror films, Sam Raimi had the good idea of hiring the director of the original film and allowed him to run loose with this remake and is able to make it work. The original was a bit darker and that's why Ju-On The Grudge and Ringu are enjoyable to watch due to the Japanese believing in superstitions and bringing them to the screen.
Sarah Michelle Gellar plays the young nurse Karen, who is sent in to a house to care for Grace Zabriskie and see's what is tormenting her, which some parts are told in flash backs. Takashi Shimizu is able to hold your attention from start to finish with some memorable moments with Takako Fuji with her role as Kayako and her groan.
