In this seventh installment of the Ju-on franchise, a school teacher visits the home of a boy who's been absent from school for a long period of time, unaware of the horrific tragedy which occurred in the boy's household many years ago. Somehow this dumb series got a seventh installment because why not right? Instead of trying to do something original or something new and different this movies do the exact opposite and keep pulling out garbage fire after garbage fire without any stop and they will keep doing it again and again and that's just sad. (0/10)

I watched this movie last night right after I watched Ju-on: Black Ghost (2009), which was rather disappointing. I had seen its co-installment, Ju-On: White Ghost (2009) the night before, which was better in terms of scares and atmosphere as well as being more cohesive, still, Black Ghost wasn't a bad effort.This movie felt like a huge improvement from the previous two installments, which weren't all too bad, but they could have been scarier. I did like that they were shorter than most movies, clocking in at only 60 minutes. This one picks up the pace again that is very similar to Ju-on: The Grudge (2002).Now, this is not a sequel to Ju-on: The Grudge 2 (2003), so there are certain reviewers incorrectly referring to this movie as Ju-on 3. This is a reboot... an American one is in the works as well. I, for one, really like the non-linear storyline and I never get bored of it. And this is coming from someone who has seen 5 Ju-on movies this week alone (sixth one will be Ju-on: The Final Curse (2015)).The scares, or the story in general now, has been used in different variations overtime, so it has gotten pretty repetitive now up to the point where I wasn't scared but rather impressed by the changes they made in this movie (talking about the last few scenes here). The very ending was funny and pretty disturbing at the same time.All in all, I'd recommend this movie to everyone who loves the Ju-on series, it will not be disappointing. Let's see what the sequel, Ju-on: The Final Curse has in store for us.

When I heard that there was a new ju on movie since white ghost and black ghost, I was so excited but when I got a call from my friend when he watched the movie after the film's release, that Takeo Saeki kills the cat by mircowaving it and kills his son with a knife instead of killing both in the bathtub. When I saw this, it was so laughable and so god awful, and badly made from the director himself also co writing the script with the producer who also produced Ju-On The Grudge (2002/2003), although I remember having the decision to download the film and edit the film from 90 mins down to 64 minutes so that it could be a better movie, that I wanted to focus it on the teacher not the student girls, my god, they were so annoying except the one who ends up getting pulled by either Toshio or Kayako. And how kayako is portrayed is so horrible, it doesn't take the integrity of the original movies including the American films itselves. And also the ending, I am not going to explain it, see it for yourselves, public, movie buffs or snobs, and the fans of the film series too, the final ending shots are really depressingly strange and more like a creepypasta of squidward's suicide where a long shot of squidward stares at you for long before he kills himself with a shotgun. So I don't recommend this movie to the fans but I can say it, give it a shot for the public and movie buffs and snobs. So final rating it's either a 0/10 or a 0 out of a freaking 1,000. God awful. Since Ju-On The Final is coming up soon, I saw the trailer and liked it but the final which made me said "that's going to far of a kuchisake onna curse inside on Kayako's body, weird. But I think I'm looking forward to the film soon.

Another scary flick in this long running Jap-horror series that seems to run out of new tricks this time around. The SCARE here is still scary and creepy, however it just feels too repetitive and we can see that it tarted to run out of any new ideas or scares here. Even they might have some new ideas here but in the end those scenes unfortunately just become laughable and make the film even less scarier and just become an embarrassment to this respected franchise. I have to admit I did laugh out loud in one of the scenes because of that. There are also some GORES here but nothing that shocking or that you haven't seen before from other horror films. Overall, this latest Ju-On film may have some classic scares here and there but in the end, the film is still a disappointing one in the series that try to bring in some new scares but ultimately resulting in becoming a laughable and forgettable one instead. >>C+<<
