The breakdown: A typical haunted house movie involving a murdered family causing a curse on everyone that sets foot into the house.

This was a terribly stupid and unintentionally funny horror movie.
An American exchange student moves with her boyfriend to Tokyo.  One day she subs for a missing nurse at a house that has an older lady who needs help taking care of herself.  Turns out the house is haunted with a vicious and vengeful spirit that curses everyone to step foot into the house where a family was murdered years ago.

I found the noises that the ghosts made sounded just like someone burping for long periods of time.
Not scary.
The ghosts were painted white with black circles around their eyes.
Not scary.
The movie....
You guessed it.
Not scary.

Don't bother.
1 out of 5 since I like Gellar and I did jump one time during the movie.
I don't understand the obsession of Asian filmmakers with ghosts, but I've seen 3 Asian horror movies now and they are all the same subject.  Someone dies violently, they come back as ghosts, they hunt and kill new people that piss them off for whatever reason.  Boring!  They should try something else like possessed items, or sci-fi anything.  These 3 films I've seen are not scary and not good.
