The Grudge
Starring Sarah Michelle Gellar
Short summary: when someone dies in anger or fear, a curse is born. A house remains dormant for three years, because it is cursed. An expatriot family move in, and the curse rears its head, killing a carer, and tormenting the haunted mother of the main tenant. Sarah Michelle Gellar is sent as a replacement nanny, and must also face the curse. Blah blah, quite bland, not particularly scary.
I haven't seen the original, but I suspect it is much better. The end contains an obligatory "sequel opening" which is enough to annoy me for a week. Why do they do this? arghghgh
