Title: Even better than the second
Review: The Grudge 3 takes place where the 2nd left off with Jake now under the care of a doctor (Shawnee Smith); he keeps informing her that Kayako is still after him but she doesn't believe him (thinking he's simply disturbed from the death of his family.) We also see a new family living in the Chicago apartment building that Jake had lived in and it seems as though the curse still lingers there. It is up to Naoko, a relative of Kayako's, who has arrived from Japan to put an end to the curse.The Grudge 3 is surprisingly effective and a fine sequel to the Grudge trilogy. There are some genuinely creepy moments and fine performances from the lead cast. It's a bit more gruesome than the previous films (now with an R-rating) and a bit more is revealed into the Grudge curse. While not a masterpiece by any means, it's a fun little horror movie. Recommended for fans of the series.
