"When someone dies in the grip of rage, a curse is born." Following the reveal of the official trailer for the new The Grudge movie back in October, a new red band trailer for the film has now been unveiled, giving us an even more unsettling look at what the deadly curse is capable of in the latest entry in the supernatural franchise.

The Grudge is rated R and is slated for a theatrical release on January 3rd, 2020.
