If anyone is interested, here is a review of the test screenings of the US remake of the Japanese horror film "Ju-On - The Grudge."
Sarah Michelle Gellar will be starring and the US remake will be directed by the same Japanese director (Takashi Shimizu) who made the original Japanese film.

Remake of THE GRUDGE: Terribly frightening or frighteningly terrible'

From these links, it looks promising - maybe because it is the same director?? - but we'll have to wait and see...

The remake of Dark Water is also something to look forward to, as the Co-Director/advisor of the American version is STILL HIDEO NAKATA...yeah!! I have read that Jennifer Connelly will be starring in the American version...

Dark Water (2005) - IMDb - No mention of Halle Berry in this cast list on IMDB. It'll be interesting to see how these films turn out.

Check out this official website of The Grudge. I must say it looks very very interesting. I didn't know that the American version was set in Japan. Wow!

Especially when you click on ENTER SITE, you can move around in the haunted house....spooky....I especially find the background noise disturbing and creepy...
