The Grudge Comes to BluRay

SONY dropped a line to let us know that The Grudge will be hitting BluRay and they were also swell enough to include the complete specs for us.

Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as an American nurse who has come to work in Tokyo. Following a series of horrifying and mysterious deaths, she encounters the vengeful supernatural spirit that possesses its victims, claims their souls, and then passes its curse to another person in a spreading chain of horror. Now, she must find a way to break this supernatural spell or become the next victim of an ancient evil that never dies, but forever lives to kill.

The Grudge was directed by Takashi Shimizu from a screenplay by Takashi Shimizu and Stephen Susco.  Sam Raimi, Taka Ichise, and Robert G. Tapert serve as producers.  The film was co-produced by Michael Kirk, Aubrey Henderson, and Shintaro Shimosawa; and executive produced by Doug Davison, Joseph Drake, Nathan Kahane, and Roy Lee.
