Ring

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

The original Japanese movie Ringu is just as scary. The storyline is a bit different, but it's just as creepy.

Incidentally, here is a very scary movie that should be out in non-Asian theaters soon:

I've seen it and it has a high creep out factor as well.
From what I hear, there's going to be a US remake of this one too.

Having watched Ring (usa version) - Ring (japanese version) and Ring 2 - I suggest that you watch Ring 2 in order to completely understand the events in "ring" - I went to bed quite scared and at easy last night! ;-)

the japanese version + ring 2 are scary...but if you really want scary.....
Audshoon (the audition) is what you should be looking for...saw that one a couple of months ago, and we went for a walk afterwards because we were just too scared to go sleeping right away :eek: first time in my life that happened....

Audition is most certainly creepy-as-hell, more so than Ring, indeed it's as bad as Alien was to my 10 yr old eyes way back, and remains just about my only memory of those times, along with losing 3-2 to ArsewipeFC in the cup final, oh, and wanting to do unspeakable things which I didn't fully understand to Daphne (no offence Ginger). I dunno, the things that leave their mark...

But yeah, all of you, watch Audition.
If you were asking my opinion then I would say delete that.

The Eye is good as well. For fans of the genre, I also recommend "Suicide Circle", "Kaïro - Pulse" and "Dark Water".
