Went to see this yesterday - I've seen both Ring, Ring 2 and "The" Ring so I was quite looking forward to it. Disappointing tho - the film tends to rely on 'cheap' shocks rather than tension and suspense. And I hate it how it goes all soppy at the end. :(

Best bit was how Samara climbed up the well :eek: :eek: :cry:

Got to say the Grudge is far better.

Bankruptcy bit is a p*sser - but it's what happens when you quit your job and earn bugger all for a year.. Still hoping to avoid it. Somehow. Will be off to the CAB when I get back from a 3 week contract in Sheffield. Need more work. Must find more work.. :rofl:

 

And you have quite a few more DVDs than me, I'd guess ;) I only have.. dunno actually.. heh :) maybe 200, tops.. about half are HK, Japanese, Korean or Chinese.. :) No VCDs, didn't really get into buying films until I got a DVD player a few years back.

 

 

 

Yes, it's a great film - bit of a headf*ck at times, and the storyline does leave you thinking "was he.." (I can't say, it'd ruin it ;) ). Absolutely, definitely, must-see film, though. Even if just for the opening shot & titles (Mujina will know the one I mean :rofl:) - never seen that in a 'normal' film before..

 

The animated prequel is pretty cool too actually.

 

cheers il rent it

:)

Yeah, I showed the film mate of mine who's into more "conventional" films, lets say, he was sat there with a shocked expression saying "Is that...? No... Can't be..." :rofl:

That's the original Japanese pressing I think - has english subs though so it'll do as long as your DVD player is multiregion.

 

The box version I have is this one - http://www.play.com/play247.asp?pa=sr&page=title&r=R2&title=168256

 

I'm not sure, but generally if there are any cuts made, the original version will usually be uncut, the UK version cut - I can't seem to find any info though on whether any cuts were made for the R2 release.

It's classic isn't it.. I just love it for the pure attitude of it :D

will do

Dark Water is grrrreat! Saw it in a little cinema off Leicester Square late one night and it scared the bejesus out of me! You kind of know what the twist is going to be from quite early on but for some reason instead of spoiling it, it just adds to the tension as you're anticipating the reveal at every turn!

 

this came through today on rent - may watch it tonight - eek!!!
