Japanese thriller horror film "The Grudge" seems to many people to be a horrible and trembling story, but in fact, after watching the analysis carefully, you can find the sad story about Kayako...
Then, What story does "The Grudge" tell?
This is the first part of the "The Grudge" series, because the first part can reflect this sad story.
We can divide the story into three parts: past, present, and future.
Of course, the most important thing is the present part, but the more important thing is the past.
The film is presented through short stories, but each story is connected, so what is the story of "now"...
Let’s start with the Tokunaga family... The
Tokunaga family moves to a new house, Tokunaga Yong Shengya, Tokunaga and Mi and their mother moved to the house where Kayako used to live. Sheng also found his wife and Mi fainted in the room when he came home from work. He wanted to call an ambulance, but felt that there was something strange in the room. When his sister Tokunaga Hitomi came to visit, his brother Sheng also vacantly refused to push Hitomi outside the house, and then went back upstairs.
The next day, Hitomi called her brother’s house but no one answered him. When she was depressed, she prepared to go to the bathroom and return to the apartment...
At the same time, Rijia, an employee of the Welfare Department, was assigned to serve at Tokunaga’s house, and Rijia found that Tokunaga’s house was in chaos. , There was only an old woman, but I had no choice but to clean up the room and take care of the elderly. When I was vacuuming, I found a photo on the ground. It turned out to be the Jia Yu family (I don’t know it). At this time, Renmei called Renmei, but Li Jia did not answer. ......
Renmei was taken aback by the shadow of the toilet when she went to the bathroom, and she reported it to the security room, but saw the shadow in the surveillance. She was very frightened and ran back to the apartment. At this time, the phone rang, but it was her brother Sheng Ye. The caller said he was outside and told her to open the door. When Renmi opened the door, she didn't find her brother, but a terrifying voice came from the phone. Renmi threw the phone back to the room and hid under the quilt. When she turned on the TV, she made strange noises. Renmei was even more frightened. Then he was dragged away by Kayako...
Rijia continued to clean up the house, and found a little boy in a room on the second floor...
While Li Jia was taking care of her mother-in-law, her eyes widened in horror, and Li Jia was shocked and fainted.
The next day, Rijia’s colleague came to Tokunaga’s house and found that her mother-in-law was dead, and Rijia was trembling in the corner, so he sent Rijia to the hospital and notified the police...the
police came to Tokunaga’s house and found the dead German in the attic. Yongsheng and Tokunaga Hemei couple.
The police found many suspicious points during the investigation. According to Rijia's confirmation, the little boy in the photo should be Kayako and Gangxiong's son Junxiong, but he has been missing for a long time. Reluctantly, he had to find the policeman Yuanshan who was in charge of the Kayako case to assist in the investigation.
At this time, police A found a corpse while washing his hands...
Yuan Shan was very frightened after watching the video of Hitomi in the security room that night. One night, he brought gasoline to burn Tokunaga’s house. While preparing, he heard voices. When there was a sound on the second floor, I saw a student-like girl hurriedly leaving. Yuanshan went up to the second floor and found that there were three other girls in the room. After screaming, the bloody Gayako suddenly appeared, and Yuanshan ran downstairs in fright. and saw two police officers came to him, frantic run, climb down to see two policemen bloody gamma coconut, cried out in horror ......
continue to work in the welfare Department after Li Jia nursed back to health, care for the elderly with dementia, and When her friend Mariko communicated with her, she found that Mariko was worrying about a child who skipped school. During the two people came to the tea restaurant, Rijia found Toshio under the table and was so scared to go home. After a good night's sleep, Mariko called and found that Mariko was in Tokunaga. Home, so he ran to Tokunaga's house in a panic, only to find that there was no one in the room.
Rijia came to the second floor and found in the closet that Mariko was dragged to the attic. Rijia followed. At this time, the bloody Kana appeared. Rijia ran downstairs and found the terrible things in the mirror. Reminiscent of her seeing Junxiong At this moment, the bloody Kanako climbed downstairs, Li Jia saw the poignant Kanako with gestures, and saw tears in her eyes.
Kayako disappeared. At this time, the blood-stained Gangxiong walked down from the stairs and stretched out his hand to Rijia...
In fact, at this point in the story, I personally think that the time and space of the past and the present overlap together~ the
past——
Kayako and Gangxiong gave birth to Junxiong after marrying Gangxiong, but Gangxiong suffered from oligozoospermia, so Kayako was suspected of being unfaithful. Junxiong was Kayako and Kobayashi's child (information from the novel), so Gangxiong brutally killed Gaya. Coconut...
This overlaps with the story of "Now". In "Now", Rijia finally incarnates as Kayako and was killed by Gangxiong. In fact, he died because of a grudge.
And here, what we see should be the tragic story of Kayako was brutally killed, and I feel that the same is true of the grievance itself. The film did not always make Kayako into bloody makeup, and finally restored Kayako’s poignant image. , Also aims to remind people to pay attention to the tragic story of Jia Yuzuo's tragic death while paying attention to the tremor and horror, and in the last few shots, we can see the tears in Jia Yuzuo's eyes.
Needless to say, the scene where the corpse Kayako opened his eyes with blood and tears. It was prepared for the second part~~~
At this time, carefully you will find that there is no "future" story, the "future" part of the film. It is about Yimei, the daughter of Yuanshan.
After returning from the graduation trip, Yimei and three other girls went to the haunted house to try her courage. Yimei left because she was too scared. When she left, she saw her father in a daze, but at this time Yuanshan was already dead. The mother is sitting in front of the father's spiritual platform).
Later, the three girls disappeared. Yimei was afraid to hide at home and did not dare to come out. These two girls were going to visit her and found that the windows of the room in Yimei Bar were closed. From Yimei’s mother, I learned that Yuanshan had such a period of time. .
After the two girls left, they found that Yimei's photo was strange, and they were very frightened.
Yimei found that the three girls came to him and was very scared. Finally, she was dragged into the Lingtai by Kayako...
And there were two spiritual cards from the Lingtai. Can we speculate that Yimei was actually with those three when she tried her courage? A girl died together~~~
And this paragraph in the future I think is to interpret this power of grievance as not being restricted by time and space.
