Directed by Nicolas Pesce, The Grudge stars Andrea Riseborough, Demián Bichir, John Cho, Betty Gilpin, Lin Shaye, and Jacki Weaver.
The screenplay by Nicolas Pesce and a story by Nicolas Pesce and Jeff Buhler, The Grudge storyline, comes from the film Ju-On: The Grudge, written and directed by Takashi Shimizu.
Produced by Sami Raimi, The Grudge is a twisted take on Shimizu’s horror classic. I couldn’t watch the trailer because it was too scary.
The featurette explains how the story is based on a Japanese film, yet the American version is scarier. If you love horror, you will love this featurette.
The following three clips show how creepy and scary the movie is. The bathtub scene is the worst one out of all the clips — super frightening.
Directed by Steve McQueen, who won an Oscar for directing 12 Years a Slave, and co-writer and bestselling author Gillian Flynn, Gone Girl, follows four women who are widows. They share a circumstance of having a debt left behind by their dead husbands’ criminal activities.
The story is a contemporary thriller located against the setting of crime, passion, and corruption. Taking place in Chicago, amidst a time of turmoil, tensions build when Veronica, played by Viola Davis, Alice, played by Elizabeth Debicki, Linda, played by Michelle Rodriguez, and Belle, played by Cynthia Erivo, take their fate into their own hands and conspire to forge a future on their own terms.
Here are two more movie trailers. We get the gest of the movie, now. These women take charge of their lives and it’s payback time.
The movie also stars Liam Neeson, Colin Farrell, Robert Duvall, Daniel Kaluuya, Lukas Haas and Brian Tyree Henry.
The three movie clips so how fast the movie moves. I hope this is true throughout the movie. I viewed some interviews with the actors, screenwriter, and director. Each actor praised the director, McQueen. You can see these interviews on my YouTube Channel.
The movie clip tells us more about the story and why these ladies decided to turn themselves into tough chicks.
The official second trailer tells the story, and I am excited and can’t wait to see it.
The two trailers are similar but one is a red-band trailer, which means it is for mature audiences.
The Blu-ray, DVD, and streaming are available. Purchasing the Blu-ray package is nearly 60-minutes of bonus content, with three documentary featurettes filled with in-depth interviews and raw on-set footage detailing the compelling production story of the movie.
