i thought it was pretty scaray. Its all in my head though.

Well you like to see me put stupid questions up so here goes.

Has anyone watched it and lived more than 7 days afterwords?
 
i did not care for the ring, i did not find it scary whatsoever
 
I love the Japanese version of Ring (not seen the US one yet), but I liked Dark Water better.

And for those who claim they didn't find Ring scary, you either watched it in entirely the wrong atmosphere or you're just plain lying.
 
Yeah, I saw it at the cinema and it really got to me. On the way home I kept getting feaked out by everyday stuff, like a ladder at the end of an alleyway, just standing there, lit up by a window.

I saw the japanese one later on the telly and it didn't have the same effect. But then whichever you see first will be the most scary I suppose. I thought the American version definately did it justice though.

The American one was good cos it was in English :D

The Jap one was good cos it was the Original :D
 
Haven't seen the Japanese one, but I didn't enjoy the American one. I'm not a fan of horror movies, especially when they aren't scary. Plus it lasted too long, and should have finished earlier, when something happened (but I can't remember what it was :rolleyes:)
 
I have only saw the jap version, fucking fantabulous. My sister saw the american one and said it scared the shat out of her.

Personally i think the japanese version is the best. The american version didn't quite have that same eeriness to it.

Agreed. Even the ghosts name is better in Japanese.

Which do you find most scary?

Samantha, or Sadako?

Sadako means Pure child to ^^

Saw the American one first and it was ace, then I saw the Jap one a few weeks later and fell asleep in it, I'm sure it's probably better than the American one but it was like 4am and you can't really be expected to read subtitles at that time of night. I'll watch it properly some time. I also got a The Ring full size poster for free from the cinema, pretty cool.
