Plot

At a certain house, a son brutally and methodically murders all five of his family members after failing the bar exam. He then hangs himself, leaving behind a cassette recorder at the scene on which he can be heard saying, “Go… Go now.” in unison with a strange female voice. That voice belongs to a victim of the family massacre, the elementary school best friend of teenager Akane (Minami). When the two were young they wore yellow hats and red satchels to school. Akane, who has a strong sense of the supernatural, soon begins seeing visions of a female ghost wearing a yellow hat and red satchel.

I agree, you need to try new things to move forward, in point of fact since all it takes to make a grudge is sorrow and rage at the time of death it always seemed like there should be a lot more.

I love this movie the same reason why some others might hate it: It's different. Sure, it doesn't have our lovely Kayako (though Toshio's guest appearance is a different story), but it's a new slate. People have complained about how predictable Ju-On has become, but with Old Lady in White and Girl in Black, there are some new twists.
