Hell Rent
By Jeffrey M. Anderson
According to the video box, this Japanese ghost story comes from author of The Grudge, but I was unable to confirm this. (As far as I could tell the only link is that both movies were shot by cinematographer Tokusho Kikumura.) Apartment 1303 is based on a novel by Kei Oishi, and regardless of comparisons with The Grudge, this movie offers nothing new. A girl moves into a haunted 13th floor apartment and throws herself out the window. Her sister and a curious cop investigate. Tartan released the DVD in late 2007 with a photo gallery and a trailer. A 3D American remake is forthcoming.
