How about Akira?  It’s a film directed by Katsuhiro Otomo in 1988, and it’s based on the manga series by the same name.  It’s an epic story about a group of teenagers caught in a battle between youth and government officials, and who eventually discover and stop the dangerous plans of a group of powerful psychics.  Or if you’re looking for something more like The Grudge, I can recommend Kuroneko.

How about Ju-On: The Grudge?  It’s a film directed by Takashi Shimizu in 2002, and it’s based on the Japanese ghost story by the same name.  It’s a story about a young mother who is plagued by mysterious things happening in her new apartment.

That's the one you already recommended. Can you name some others like that one?

There’s also The Ring, which is directed by Hirokazu Koreeda in 1998.  It’s about a young journalist who discovers a mysterious videotape, and is surprised by what it does to her.

I watched the American version, but I can try to watch the original.
