This film really gives me goosebump, the house that initially looked normal, as the duration goes, it becomes very scary.

The atmosphere is very suffocating and uncomfortable in the positive way for horror films. The build up is very brilliant, from every segment that is not arranged sequentially but all of them are interconnected and I never imagine that I will be able to witness such very interesting story development here, plus the execution of the jumpscare is very good.

Kayako and Toshio are not too scary but how they arrange every scene with both vengeful spirit and combined with the scary atmosphere that already can not be detained, the end result is very crazy. The "Kayako" segment, when both of them launched a frontal attack on Kobayashi was very epic, outstanding and haunting.

In the last segment, Kayako only appeared briefly in front of Kyoko but was able to make me shudder, then it was end with that gaze.

Satisfying.
Perfection.

This film absolute up there but below Hideo Nakata's "Dark Water" as my favorite J-Horror.
