Being that The Ring is a remake I was tempted to think that the film would bring nothing new to the table from the original (Japanese version) Ringu.But boy was I wrong.
I have to be honest and say that the brilliantly produced, gruesome and eerie videos stuck with me long after I finished watching the film.
The brilliant scene where the girl comes out of the TV screen is unbelievable and whenever I think about I am still terrified.
What I enjoy about this film the most is how much anticipation and suspense is built, the atmospheric mood that is created is excellent.
Like a good scary film the viewer should always feel that the characters are in a situation they just cannot control.
The Ring is one of the best films I have ever seen in accomplishing this.
I remember lying about my age to go and see this. It's still one of the scariest films I've watched. Even now it would probably make me jump. Good choice
