The Ring - 9/10 Warning: I may spoil your movie experience This movie was near perfect. Likely to do to televisions what Psycho did to showers, and what What Lies Beneath did to bathtubs, and.... ah.... you get it. It's disturbing, weird, scary, myseterious, and everything in between. I almost became misled from the opening scene that made me worried it was another goofy slasher (the two teenagers acting stupid and talking about scary shite).. but I soon overcame all that foolishness whenever we learned that the tape is real, and the few people that saw it all died at 10:00 pm the same night.... A-HAAA... now it's more of a mystery. I was not familiar with any of the cast, but I say the lead character and her ex-husband acted extremely well... and that kid's eyes are enough to phuck your mind up. The directing, hahaha...that was the pride of the film. That tape was just as crazy as you were hoping for.... like a terribly terrible acid nightmare... only every aspect of the tape had a part in the story - the mirror, the ladder, the chair, the well, the man in the window..... everything was a flashback as the facts unfold. Excellent. Simply excellent. I also just ate up those pictures with the weird faces - they looked (not surprisingly) like a person's face on staticy television. That was just too damn cool. I even felt a hint of Final Destination after everyone in the family had viewed the tape. The best part of the movie, though maybe not to everyone, was the fact that after it was over I was still asking myself lots of question, something I'm not accustom to doing unless a movie really takes me. I was particularly confused as to how making a copy of the tape saved a person, someone had to clear that one up for me (remind me to always forward my chain letters, hehe)... and how a tape copy can contain embedded signals that cause #s to screw up, etc... I would just like to say that I really loved this movie and look forward to an awesome DVD, if you want to get disturbed... you should definately see it P.S. the screen messed up about 20 minutes before the end, and the piece of shit theater we were at wouldn't give me a refund or run the tape back... we couldn't rest until we got to see the rest of it and we did!
