I've seen the Japanese version and it's not very good. It's like a less interesting version Ringu but with a girl in a water tower instead of a well.

She's super.

i thought the origional was pretty good ..
it suffers from predictability which is a result of the sameness of Japanese horror films as of late..

otherwise it's still a well made solid film.


i'm starting to loose the point of seein the remakes ..
I was happy with the american Grudge - and the ring ...
i'm getting tired of the formula though - in both japanese and
american.

Agreed.

It´s not enough that they are well made or even good. WE LIKE TO SEE SOMETHING NEW NOW!!!!

I checked the movie times... This movie is barely getting played... Only 5 times today... Even DOTD is being played more than Dark Water at 6 times. Interesting. I would figure lot of people would be interested in this movie. War of the Worlds is being played 23 times today. I will probably go check Dark Water out. I have yet to see the original.

I havent seen the original or the re-make... It seems to be getting mix reviews... I'll probably wait for it on DVD. Is the original much better than the re-make?? If so, then I'll rent that.

The original was decent. The action was GREAT at the end (scene in the elevator mainly) but the rest sort of drug. But that aside I refuse to go see the remake. I'm sick of americanized Japanese movies. It doesn't mean we're getting a bit of culture in our lives it just means writers are getting lazy...the bastards...
