She sees and feels the brutal murder of a young woman she's never met, at the hands of a heartless killer. Joanna is guided by her nightmares to the murdered woman's hometown.
This movie was horrible. I'm usually an easy going critic and can find some good in almost any movie. I've got nothing on this bad boy. If it wasn't for WW wanting to find out how it ended, I would have been out of that theater 25 minutes in to it. It wasn't creepy like the Grudge movies. It wasn't gory like the Saw movies. It didn't even have any cheap thrills like cats jumping out of trees or someone being outside the car door all of a sudden. It tried to do one of those a-ha type endings that The Sixth Sense made popular but by the time you got there - I doubt that there was a single person in the theater that cared. It was almost as if you could see Sarah Michelle Gellar wondering why she didn't sign on for an expanded role in The Grudge 2 instead of this steaming pile of cow dung.
I would recommend this movie to nobody . . . . . . ever . . . . . . . . seriously . . . . . DON'T DO IT!
