Wii Releasing “The Grudge” Video Game

A video game based on the Japanese movie Ju-on (a.k.a. The Grudge) is coming to the Nintendo Wii.  Tentatively titled Kyoufu Taikan: Ju-on or Fear Experience: Ju-on, the game puts players in a haunted mansion where they will be equipped with a flashlight which will be controlled by the Wii Remote.

As if the idea of this game isn’t creepy enough, players will get to play as different members of a family as they experience different fears.

The game release will coincide with the two new Ju-on movies that will hit the big screen this summer to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the original film.  It will be available earlier in Japan but I’ve read that it will be released in North America on December 31, 2009.

Check out the game’s official site.  Be forewarned, it’s a little scary!
