the spoiler bit of this page appears to be lifted verbatim from yahoo. Xtra 13:02, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I think it's a standard promotional blurb actually. --60.226.1.88 13:10, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Perhaps this article should include mention of the concept of urami and aragami in the Shinto religion?

from the Wikipedia Shinto article: "Failure to show proper respect can be seen as a lack of concern for others, looked down on because it is believed to create problems for all. Those who fail to take into account the feelings of other people and kami will only bring ruin on themselves. The worst expression of such an attitude is the taking of another's life for personal advancement or enjoyment. Those killed without being shown gratitude for their sacrifice will hold "urami" (a grudge) and become aragami, a powerful and evil kami that seeks revenge." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 164.111.196.246 (talk) 22:45, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deaths section

Makes absolutely no sense, especially the first and last deaths. I fixed most of the grammar errors, but having not watched the film I can't make heads or tails of the intended meanings of those two. Can someone who does fix them? Torca 03:47, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I removed it, I mean it wasn't even necessary. All of the deaths are described and explained in the plot, besides this "Death Lists" are considered pointless to Wikipedia. There was once death lists for every horror movie article but now they are forced to be removed and I can't say that I disagree because it has no encyclopedic value and it is nothing but pointless spoiler information.

Massive vandalism

I attempted to undo the large amount of changes involving the mildly-humorous change of "Grudge" to "Grunge" as well as changes to every name in the summary, but the "undo" button is useless. Help? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.180.255.245 (talk) 03:34, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kayako

Hi, I can't spell her name, but I KNOW she isn't a he-she. At one point in the text, why does it say Takayo (Can't spell his either) breakes his next, then refers to her as a she? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.66.35.187 (talk) 16:13, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

ok we need to make the plot more detailed and correct, and longer the plot is only 3 lines! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.171.70.92 (talk) 14:04, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Someone has performed an edit that has wrecked the formatting. I am not savvy enough to undo the change, so I'm pointing it out.
