Nowadays it seems to be that all Hollywood seem to do in horror movies is show us gore and teens in distress. Maybe a jump or two but nothing downright scary. There are the exceptions &#8211; <em>Paranormal Activity<\/em> being the recent low budget horror to give us chills but nothing else American really springs to mind, unless you count the underrated and not bad Stephen King adaptation of <em>Pet Sematary<\/em>. I recently watched it again and the Zelda scene still give me nightmares.<\/p>\n<p>No, for me my scariest moment comes from <em>The Grudge<\/em>. Japanese always seem to do horror and utter dread much better than America &#8211; they don&#8217;t even need to show piles of blood. The original <em>Ring<\/em> was a shocker because the terror actually came OUT of the TV and was coming for you. But <em>The Grudge<\/em> (the original by the way, not the Sarah Michelle Gellar remake) seemed to do this tenfold. The scenes in there &#8211; and I will try not to spoil it for you too much but seek it out if you want a really good scare &#8211; are some of the most harrowing and unsettling horror I have ever seen. Especially the bit in the bedroom where the woman is pulled under&#8230; It haunts you for days after and the sequel is pretty good too. Even if you hate subtitled films &#8211; I don&#8217;t and have many such as <em>REC<\/em>, <em>The Orphanage<\/em>, <em>Let The Right One In<\/em> and many Japanese horrors &#8211; this is the one to seek out first and you can get it quite cheaply online now.<\/p>\n<p>I will never forget it and still brave it on Halloween and stick this on before any Freddys and Jasons. But remember and get the original Japanese one.
