Movie Spotlight

The Grudge 2 kicks off the Halloween movie season this weekend. The sequel will be hoping to take full advantage of opening on Friday the 13th and post a strong opening weekend. Then, in an ideal world, good word of mouth will give it a shot at two more good weekends leading up to Halloween itself on October 31st. That's a pretty bold goal, but not out of the question.

We'll take a look at the history of horror movies opening in the first half of October and the Curse of the Sequel with the Female Star.

Synopsis

From Columbia Pictures and Ghost House Pictures comes the much-anticipated sequel to the 2004 worldwide hit "The Grudge." The terrifying thriller "The Grudge 2" explores the dark secrets of the grudge as the terrifying supernatural curse is unleashed on a group of seemingly unrelated victims. One by one, they are infected by the grudge, which quickly moves from a burned-down house in Tokyo and spreads to everyone who crosses its path.
