The Ring 2002

Full of suspense and intrigue, The Ring is a subtle but intense thriller. When a newspaper reporter investigates an underground videotape that supposedly kills you seven days after watching it, she discovers that it’s all too true. Featuring Naomi Watts, Martin Henderson, Brian Cox, and Amber Tamblyn, the casting is pretty good, with one exception (the child actor who plays Watt’s son). And while the pacing seems slow, it just makes the thrills that much more intense when they come. Additionally, the investigation of the tape is well-plotted and engrossing. Though American remakes of foreign films have a bad rap, The Ring is an impressive horror film that delivers some bone-chilling terrors.
