If you really want to be creeped out, get the original Japanese version "Ringu". I had to turn the lights on for it. The ending ~ SPOILER ~ when she comes out of the TV is done in a backward masking effect. Oh my, it is sooooo wacked out. I just sat there saying, "Oh He!! no."

The Ring was a snoozer...

I've seen The Ring twice and thought it was by far one of the freakiest, scariest movies I've seen and I LOVE horror flicks.

Thanks for the tip on Ringu, I just added it to my Netflix queue. Can't wait to get it.

I thought just the ads for this were scary. Of course it doesn't take mech to terrify me. But my kid saw it and said it was very good, very creepy. Much later she said she wanted to watch it with me and her dad, to "see if it was as scary" as she thought. I told her, I don't know why you want me there, I'll probably be watching from behind the pillow, as usual!

I actually DO want to see this, but I am absolutely lilly-livered about all of them. I'm still a little spooky since I saw 6th sense.

What's it about?

Felt compelled to comment after running across the old thread in the archives . . .

"The Ring" scared the holy HELL out of me.

I couldn't sleep for three nights - I kept seeing that ladder and chair and Anna. (Not to mention what happens at the end.)

"Ringu" doesn't work as well on me.

However, every person I know who's seen both admits to being more scared by whichever version was seen first.
