Ju-on, really?
4 July 2020
The series is clearly unrelated to the original films, except for the house. In fact, it looks more like a drama about misfit characters than something supernatural. The curse has changed (almost no one who enters the house dies), and the "origins" of the title can only be a joke, because it simply does not explain anything about the origin of the cursed house. It's not scary, it's not interesting, it's repetitive and it shouldn't be a series of 6 episodes. A 1:30 movie would be enough. The ending is pathetic. At this point, we can conclude that, no matter what they do, only Takashi shimizu can make Ju-on work.
