Scary Movie Weekend

The Ninth Gate and The Grudge. I enjoyed The Ninth Gate. I am not sure if I really am this dim, but I still am not certain what really happened. I loved the mystery of the film and the performances were great, but how did it end? Who was the blonde chick? What had Depp accomplished? What will he do w/ the nine pages? Why is he the one to end up w/ the complete puzzle? Perhaps I was in the wrong state of mind to comprehend these issues, but I still enjoyed the film. My other half also had some problems understanding the film's resolution, and he had seen it before! All in all, it was still a fun time. The Grudge, on the other hand was about as simple as you could get. Bad house, mean ghosts, and creepy children. I had a good time watching it, but did not think it was the best horror I have ever seen. Although, I did have a difficult time closing my eyes to fall asleep last night. I found myself covering my eyes a few times, so that was certainly notable. One moment gave me a complete body goosebump makeover; the face in the window of the bus! Ugh! Worthwhile watch, and I anxiously await the sequel.
