Directed by: Gore Verbinski
Starring: Naomi Watts and Martin Henderson
There’s a cursed videotape. Those who dare to watch it die seven days
afterward. Sixteen year old girl Katie
Embry (Amber Tamblyn) apparently watched the videotape. She dies mysteriously in her home one night
while with her friend Becca (Rachael Bella).
After Katie’s passing, Katie’s mom Ruth (Lindsay Frost) asks her sister
Rachel (Naomi Watts) to use her experience as a journalist to investigate her
niece’s death. Along with her son Aidan
(David Dorfman), Rachael goes to the cabin where Katie viewed the tape. She watches it, and gets a phone call
from a mysterious individual warning her that she has seven days to live.
Over the course of the next week, Rachel is faced with an ultimatum—to save herself by figuring
out why watching this tape will kill her or to die.
The
Ring is not a horror
film with blood and guts spilled everywhere, but that doesn’t mean you won’t be
terrified. Its true horror lies in its
frightening visuals. Watch it if you
dare. The Ring gets a 0.06% rating.
You will need some liquid courage to get through this one.
