"the ring" is a re-make of a Japanese movie. The English one looks like a piece of shit from the preview.
First of all "the ring" is supposed to refer to a phone ringing, not an actual ring.
Whats with that angle?
Anyway a friend of mine saw it and said its ok, but not as scary as the orginal.
I wish they just dubbed the orginal movie. Oh well, I'll still watch it next week since I know some people going to see it.
Agreed. The American version is too hollywood'ed up. For example, what's with girl saying "ALL WILL SUFFER" in some stupid whisper voice? In the Japanese version, the girl says NOTHING -- NO LINES (except for a quick line in Ring 2). The only thing associated her is the uber-freaky noise of metal scraping on the floor.

If you really want to see a freaky movie, see the Japanese movie -- people DIED after seeing it.
