Just saw the TV review a few hours ago. They both said they felt like walking out it was so bad...Wonder if they have seen the original? The Japanese version chills the bone..
Follow Ups:
I just saw it. It is the usual bag of scare tricks with a fairly traditional back story for a spook flick. The scare tactics are skillfully applied and I jumped several times. It simply didn't stick with me as I left the theater. A-/B+ for craft C- for art. There are only so many ways to scare an audience. It is getting harder and harder to come up with a movie that is really scary and really substantial.
To both the original and the Buffy version. Those that like them appreciate what they have to offer (atmosphere mainly, J-horror style), and those who don't complain about what it doesn't offer(lack of fomulaic style, linear coherency, answers at the end).
