The director of the movie decided to take up all the questions and put all the speculations and doubts to rest. In a recent conversation with the Boo Crew Podcast, Nicolas gave hopes to the fans for a scarier experience and a much more vengeful spirit. He explained that he thinks the overarching thing would be to take the horror series that left a huge mark globally to more places than just Japan and America, and potentially even leave the modern era.

He continued that the movie is something to him…the Grudge is not a thing that happened once, it’s been happening forever. It’s just a matter of uncovering when and where that happened. He further added that he thinks that there’d be something cool in going way far back and doing something that’s less contemporary. He would like to see what shape this sort of thing has taken the form of in other forms and other places, he concluded.
