Frightened by the last 5 minutes~

I saw it 3 years ago and I was very impressed. I didn't dare to try the Japanese version at all.
Watching the US version, the process of understanding the little girl in the video from sympathy to rescue, the process is over, I thought it was safe, but finally found that what you rescued was evil without cause. From the beginning to the end, only the process of the little girl's isolation and killing was given, but it did not explain the reason why the little girl had to go through all this. I was really frightened by the evil for no reason, but this is also the highlight of the film, the infinite imagination. I always feel that the next sequels of the Japanese version are actually equivalent to giving people a safe answer, but I don’t think so.

    Comparing with the original Japanese version, you can see that there are many different filming concepts between the East and the West.

    The copycat trend actually started in the United States.

The Ring quotes

  • Noah: [Referring to the tape] Look I'm sorry but I'm not gonna get all hung up on some high schooled rumor.

    [Rachel gives him a weird look]

    Noah: What are you thinking?

    Rachel Keller: I'm thinking this is the part where I tell you that you're a slug who never finishes anything and then you say I'm an obsessive bitch. Then I storm out all pissed off, kicking myself for ever thinking that you could just GROW UP!

  • Rachel Keller: Hey Noah, can you pretend for a second that I don't read "Video Geek Magazine"?

    Noah: Okay, when you record a tape, the makeup on the track is like a signature for whatever did the recording like a VCR, camcorder, or whatever, so the control track can tell us where it came from. But to not have one, I mean that's like being born without finger prints.

    Rachel Keller: Then how did this get recorded?

    Noah: I don't know.
