| RINGU (1998) | |
|
|
A teenage girl dies after she has watched a video and her cousin Reiko, who is a reporter, begins to investigate what killed her niece. Reiko gets a hold of the same tape, which she watches and odd things begin to happen. She asks her ex-husband Ryuji to help her and he watches the tape too. Their research and the myths say that one will die seven days after one has seen the tape. Reiko and Ryuji now have to fight time in order to not only find an answer as to why people die, but also save their own lives. Ringu is a very chilling horror story that uses the technique of both contemporary horror as well as old fashion horror with a delicate touch. The film masters the elements of both surprise and expectation, and this crafts a truly great horror story that will keep the audience squirming and sweating in their seats. |
