The only reason I'd bash you is because you went and saw it in the first place. Of course it's going to suck. How many Amerikan adaptations of Japanese movies have been good? The Ring? No. The Eye (which hasn't come out yet but will be coming out)? No. Shall We Dance (yes, that new film is a Japanese remake that got shit on)? No. THEY WILL ALL SUCK. The only reason they work so well in Japan is because they're creative and leave a ton of loose ends (and Darin, you should know a thing or two about loose ends

). Amerikans like to have everything wrapped in a nice little package that comes together at the end (something I suspect Darin is also familiar with

) and gives us all a warm fuzzy feeling of closure. But yes...Ju-On was much better. Actually there are 4 Japanese Ju-On movies..."Ju-On", "Ju-On 2", "Ju-on: The Grudge", and "Ju-On: The Grudge 2". All are surely infinitely better than the Amerikan piece of trash, though I've only seen the first one which kicked much ass.
