Ju-On (2002) - Remake Schmemake

What this episode covers

Nobody does horror quite like Japan, and it's fascinating to see the original Grudge before the Americans got ahold of it. This also serves as a reminder of the importance of full disclosure in real estate! Join us as we watch various unfortunate well-meaning Nihonjin try to cope with a raven-haired glottal fly wraith mom, a catty kid in eyeliner, and a nail-biter of a dad. And if the visuals don't creep you out, the soundscape surely will. Bonus: Charles thinking he has even a rudimentary command of Japanese, and his husband Tom setting things right. Soooo desu. Themes from Ju-On by Shiro Sato. Remake Schmemake theme music by ⁠⁠JuliusH⁠⁠ from ⁠⁠Pixabay⁠⁠.
