My Grudge 2 experience (with spoilers likely)

So, if you read the last post, you'll notice I said something about how The Grudge 2 sucked. So I'm going to regale you with why it sucked in my opinion.

First, why would you take your little kids to see this movie? The first one was scary. Like, I was scared, so I can't imagine being under 10 and seeing this movie. So if you take your kids to this movie, you're a terrible parent. And there were probably 4 or 5 terrible parents at this movie. So many dumb little kids. Also, and this is probably more unbelievable, there was a kid who was like 2 there! How is this a good idea? "Can't find a babysitter, might as well scare the living shit out of our 2 year-old." And this kid seemed to take it pretty well actually.

So the movie starts. I see Amber Tamblyn's name in the credits. Fuck. She sucks, this movie is then by default going to suck. And if it doesn't suck, it's going to seriously have to work to get to that level since she's in it.

So, here's what the movie does. It explains why shit is going on. Kind of. It does a pretty terrible job of it. Also, it falls victim to so many mistakes of sequels to scary movies. There is way too much plot involving trying to find out why this shit is happening instead of just showing scary shit. It wasn't really scary at all. It was more rage-inducing.

Also, the movie doesn't really explain some of the other things about the first movie. Like, for instance, how SMG lives through the final scene of Grudge 1.

This is a poorly pieced rant on the suckings of The Grudge 2, mainly because I was so angry about it sucking so badly. There just wasn't enough scary stuff (or hardly any), and then when there was something that was supposed to be scary, it wasn't scary. It included a bunch of shit that wasn't explained. Also, at one part, we're learning about Kyoko or whatever her name is, and we meet her mother. And, for some reason, we learn that we've spent about 45 minutes of the movie investigating something that has nothing to do with the curse anyways. Terrific.

I suppose it's possible that Grudge 3 could tie everything together and make me hate Grudge 2 less, but I doubt it. Another terrible thing is that the reviews of it are all bad, but because horror reviews are usually bad, nobody thinks anything of it. So this is my review. IT SUCKED. If you liked Grudge 1, you'll hate Grudge 2. If you liked The Ring 2, you might like Grudge 2. And if you liked The Ring 2, I don't want to know you.
