A genuinely enthralling horror pic
An adaptation of the popular horror potboiler by KĂŽji Suzuki, 1998's Ringu is a nerve-jangling and atmospheric Japanese horror gem that's destined to get under your skin. Upon its release, the film became the highest-grossing Japanese horror flick in history, and it has gone down in history as an influential... read more
A very good movie
Review
It was re-made into a Hollywood movie that tried to 'improve' it but only resulted in making it un-focused. If you're lucky enough not to have seen the re-make yet, do yourself ... read more

"3.1. Blu-ray Ihmisen pahuus puhuttelee maallisella ja yliluonnollisella tasolla. En ihan kaikista teknisistÀ ja kerronnallisista keinoista innostunut (varmaan halusin oikeasti K. Kurosawaa), mutta erityisesti loppujakso on yllÀttÀvÀnkin karmivaa ja yksinkertaisesti tehokkuudessaan oikeastaan virheettömÀn oloista. Sadakon tarina ja motiivit kyllÀ avataan, mutta missÀÀn vaiheessa ei tunnu turhan selitellyltÀ tai helpolta. Loppu jÀÀ miellyttÀvÀn auki, vaikka pÀÀhahmo yhdessÀ katso"

" Notes: I remember it as it it was yesterday. The first time, I watched this movie, I was so scared sh*tless... I was with a whole bunch of friends and nobody was really paying attention to the movie but I was completely fixated and the scene with the TV (if you have seen it, you know what I'm talking about...) was, at the time, one of most frightening scenes I have ever seen. The funny thing is that I re-watched it again, 10 later years and, honestly, it wasn't as terrifying as I thought it wa"

" As a stand-alone this film is alright, halfway decent except a few clunky moments. It spends a good amount of time not being very scary, and toward the end, I think they are taking a few too many logical leaps to get to the end sequence, leaps that the book had time and pacing to elaborate on but the movie had to cut for the sake of time and pacing. However it is still quite the classic, there where some eerie moments and I loved the smudged face effect in photos, for 1998 when you had to get"

"5.12, PC TÀmÀ oli tietyllÀ tapaa fiksumpi tukkakauhu kuin odotin, mutta pelottavuudessa tÀmÀ ei vastannut sitÀ mitÀ tÀltÀ odotin. Ringun hitaasti itseÀÀn avaava kerronta olisi varmasti toiminut paremmin, jos en olisi joskus sitÀ jenkkiversiota ja Scary Movien ivailuja kyseisestÀ filmistÀ nÀhnyt. Pidin kuitenkin siitÀ, miten yliluonnolliset elementit sÀilyttivÀt mystisen vibansa loppuun saakka. Elokuvassa nÀhtÀvÀ kirottu filmi oli kylmÀÀvÀÀ tavaraa; jotenkin tuollaiset e"
