O Grito: O Final (2015)

Intense and scary, I think this is the first time I said those two words again since Ju-On: The Grudge 2. Apart from the shortcomings, the two words covered a lot of ground in my eyes.

I really enjoy watching this film, somehow the characters feel likeable to me, making me willing to follow the story they will soon experience, and... the girls are kawaii, Reo-chan!!!

In the previous film, I felt it was too spacious and empty; in this film, I feel it is so adequate and tight, and I love it. For the horror aspect, this film plant tension little by little from the beginning, which is later picked up when it starts entering the phase of killing its character. The tension was already there but suddenly rises dramatically, and I got goosebumps all over my body.

The peak of this film, imo, is when Reo finally finds out who Toshio is after being told by Midori, which made me get goosebumps because I realized that Reo and Toshio's room were close, and he can come in any minute when he knows that she finally knows. So Toshio didn't come, instead, Reo-chan went to his room, just to suddenly carry him on her back, then be chased by Kayako till she fell down the stairs. After that, Reo and his mother were terrorized by Kayako, just like in some home invasion films. Eventually, me and they are getting paranoid; they are afraid to be killed, and I just don't really want to see My Reo-chan get killed, aargh. Kayako then proceeds to kill the remaining characters with an intensity that has penetrated the sky.

The killing scene is in fact ridiculous, but at least it's an on-screen death, and I find it amusing. Throwing someone into the ceiling and not hanging them with Kayako's hair, nice; having Toshio get inside someone's body to kill it from inside, noice, and etc.

For Kayako, now she likes to open her mouth wide; it's scary, but it looks like she's trying hard. It's just so obvious that no one can match Takako Fuji's Kayako. On the other hand, Toshio had several actors who played his role well.

I think that's all. I really enjoyed it, and this ended my journey to watch this film franchise. There's Origins but not gonna watch it anytime soon, probably someday.
