So I just watched Ringu, the movie which The Ring was based off of. It was cool. There are many aspects of it which I liked better then The Ring, but some things that were better in The Ring. Most of the story aspects in Ringu I found to be better and more interesting…. except they cut out most of the stuff with the kid, and stuff didn’t always flow as smoothly (japanese films tend to be slightly jumpy for my taste anyway… so i guess that makes sense)… but yeah… the ending especially I liked better. They follow pretty similar plot-lines, but there are differences… it’s definately an intersting watch after seeing The Ring. I’d say Ringu has an actual element of scariness to it too… which was greatly lacking in The Ring, despite the hype 😉 I guess just the way it is presented in Ringu seemed a lot more real. So yeah, if you get a chance, check it out. So long as you can take reading subtitles I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

  1. yeah I watched the ring on tuesday night. I jumped out of my skin – I guess Im just skittish when it comes to movies such as that one.

    the night I saw it at the movies, I came home alone with no one at the house at 10pm with no porch lights or anything. there are still key gashes on the lock where I tried frantically to get in. 😉 ha
