Viewing Notes

Finally diving into the Arrow Films JU-ON box set. I’d never seen the original SOV movies so it was nice to correct that. This first one works pretty damn well and at times is actually enhanced by its lower quality videography. It feels long, but not overlong, so I’m glad they broke this up into two movies even though they shot everything together (in 9 days!).
