Found this on Ring World (www.theringworld.com), and thought it was funny, because people keep making comments on how The Grudge looks just like The Ring:
"The Grudge - Not the Ring. 23 August. Several people have e-mailed to ask what relation The Grudge (the posters and trailers for which look more than a little familiar...) has to the Ring. The answer is: none whatsoever. The Grudge is a remake of the Japanese film Juon, which (despite being billed as "from the creators of Ringu," i.e. having Ring scriptwriter Takahashi Hiroshi as creative consultant and Ring 2 editor Takahashi Nobuyuki) is wholly separate. "

The Ring was a remake, Psycho was an exact copy.

ahem. it's not an exact copy. saw it, liked it. I've seen the original a couple of times and while it follows the same story, it's told with slight changes that will bring new scares to anyone who saw the original and will work just fine for those being introduced to the story for the first time.
The Grudge is also a REMAKE.
