Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis film is actually the third installment of the Ju-on series, and the first to get a wide theatrical release. It was preceded by two low budget films from 2000 known as (Ju-on: The Curse (2000) and Ju-on: The Curse 2 (2000)), whose storylines are continued in this sequel.
- Goofs(at around 1h 18 mins) When Rika wakes up in bed to a room full of yowling black cats, several of the cats are obviously statues. Some of them are even clearly replicas of the same statue.
- Alternate versionsIn the Technical Specifications link for the film, there are two versions of this film listed, one with a runtime "1 hr 32 min (92 min)" and another clocking in at "1 hr 43 min (103 min) (original cut)".

Featured review
Unsettling
Unlike many of the "reviews" below, I'm not going to take cheap shots at those who might not like Ju-On.
I will say, however, that any fan of supernatural horror owes it to themselves to decide on this one for themselves.
I wholeheartedly agree with those who found this film almost uncomfortable to watch. If you are one of those whom this film really gets to, it is an experience as powerful as Ringu, Dark Water or the Exorcist. Scary, scary, stuff.
