How do you stop a curse that never dies? Jake, the sole survivor of The Grudge 2 massacre, is tortured by chilling visions of Kayako and Toshio that have led to his hospitalization. Jake's caretaker, Dr. Sullivan (Shawnee Smith) is determined to investigate his horrifying tales. She explores his Chicago home, finding another family on the brink of succumbing to the curse. It becomes clear that Jake's terrifying stories are true, and a mysterious Japanese woman may be the only hope of banishing the spirits forever...unless her plan destroys them all.

The number “three”, together with “direct-to-video” suggest misfortune, but the third Grudge is a surprisingly decent ghost story overall. It doesn’t forgo the characteristic atmosphere of its two American predecessors, thanks to which The Grudge is a series that has more or less (rather less, but still) managed to scare me with every entry. The story this time couldn’t be any simpler, but I don’t see it as a bad thing. The lower budget is visible at times in the not very good looking ghosts, but in the end it’s not as bad as in the trailer. After two films, Toby Wilkins is looking like an interesting talent whose future work might be worth following.
