THE GRUDGE is a horror film in which a ghost causes those who enter a haunted house to die.

violence
There are scenes of strong and sometimes bloody violence, when people are forced to kill others by a supernatural entity, or when they take their own lives in order to get away from the entity. In one scene a woman holds a child under bath water in order to drown the child and in another a man's limbs are broken and contorted after he is pushed down a staircase.
threat and horror
There are a number of scenes of strong threat and horror, including regular 'jump' scares, as an entity suddenly appears behind people, or out of the shadows, and grabs at them. There are also sequences of suspense in which people enter a haunted house and other darkened spaces to investigate supernatural sounds and movements.
injury detail
There is sight of dead bodies, sometimes with bloody injury detail, as well as sight of very heavily decomposed corpses. In one scene it is suggested a man has gouged out his own eyes, although the gouging is not shown. In another scene it is suggested that a woman has cut off her own fingers, under the influence of a supernatural entity.
additional issues
There are references to suicide and assisted dying, but always in a supernatural context where the suicides are motivated by people wanting to get away from the supernatural entity. There is also infrequent use of strong language ('f**k').
