The Grudge 2. 2006.

This picks up where the second film ended, Amber Tamblyn taking the lead is sent to Japan to bring her sister Karen home and finding out what happened, teaming up with journalist Edison Chen and uncover the origins of kayako.

Three school friends visit the famous haunted house that does not go well and fell they are being followed by the spirit of Kayako and Toshio. Trish played by Jennifer beals moves in with her boyfriend and his children and soon things begin to wrong with the neighbours and their daughter before it affects the family next door.

Some sequels never really live up to the hype or frenzy of it's predecessor but this one had me entertained from start to finish, ok the jump scares are a bit predictable at times but director Takashi Shimzu is able to create a bit more of a darker tone with this and paces things up to the last 15-20 minutes of the film.
