Difference between the extras on the Grudge releases???
 

Hey all,

I was looking at the 2 released of the Grudge (DC, and regular). It seems that 90% of the extras on each release are different from the other one... Is that really the case? Or are some extras simply renamed and/or combined?

Thanks,

Matt!

As many would say "search is your friend:"
Check out these reviews. They’re pretty thorough:
Unrated cut:

Theatrical cut:

The extras differ on each edition. The PG-13 Theatrical disc includes a commentary track with Sam Raimi, Ted Raimi, Sarah Michelle Gellar, etc., a 1 hour documentary (divided into 5 parts) on the making of the film, and Under The Skin Featurette: A Medical Explanation of the Fear Response in Film.

The Unrated Extended Director's Cut includes a commentary track with Director Takashi Shimizu, Producer Taka Ichise and Actress Takako Fuji (In Japanese with English subtitles), 15 Deleted Scenes with Optional Filmmaker Commentary, Director Takashi Shimizu's Original Ju-On Short Films "4444444444" and "In a Corner", Video Diaries from Sarah Michelle Gellar and KaDee Strickland, The Grudge House: An Insider's Tour, Production Designer's Notebook: The Sketches of Iwao Saito, and Sights and Sounds: The Storyboard Art of Takashi Shimizu.

If you're a big fan of this film, you'll probably want both discs.
