I just saw the movie tonight. I'm confused as all hell as to what exactly transpired.

First: So, the girl was in the mental hospital....earily looked like the friend of the cousin that went into the hospital.

Second: So why was Rachel and the boy saved and the father not?

Third: If she wasn't meant to be resurrected from the well then why did "she" lead them there?

Fourth: What was with the ending where Rachel see's the woman getting onto the elevator to go upstairs where the father is now dead? Is that woman supposed to represent Samara?

Fifth: I thought the mom ended up in the mental hospital...so when did Samara end up there and how come she was let out then?

Second: Because they made a copy of the tape. She needs to be heard in order not to mess with you. Third: because she wanted to be let out in order to get revenge. Fourth: huh?? Yeah was either her or the father's assassitant. Fifth: Her parents put her in there and they pulled her out before her mom pushed her down the well.

It was the freakiest movie ever. Yeah.

I SO agree! I have never been so freaked out by a movie in my entire life! :eek:

You know, when I first heard of it, I thought, "That looks stupid! A video tape that kills people? They must be running out of ideas." But then I saw it... and WOW!!! I jumped about 20 times, and was scarred to go to sleep that night... and as I said in an earlier entry, I saw it back in October, and I still get freaked out by my TV if I wake up in the middle of the night.

My roommate freaked out big time when she came in last night. Not at the TV though - I had downloaded pictures off the movie website and set them as the desk top to her computer. Then I stayed in my room to hear her reaction. She screamed bloody murder!

We watched it again tonight, and let me tell you, it doesn't get any less freaky!!!

Saw it again tonight....Freaky!!!!

It was the 4th time I've seen it, but it was still freaky!!!

I just saw this movie...was very freaked out...but I have to purchase it tomorrow just to check out the parts on the DVD labeled "Don't look here" and something else (you know, the extra features of the DVD). I will probably freak myself out even more, but that's me!

I saw this at a friend's house Friday night and it was very scary, but also really weird enough to where it didn't freak me out.

Girl, I didn't even watch that b/c I had to drive home afterward. No thanks. :0

Ok, just watched it again tonight to see if it was as scary since i knew the ending... Yes, still freaked me out (can't watch the part where they show Katie or Noah after they die, or the part where Samara comes out of the screen), but not so freaky afterwards. I made my roomate/little sis watch it with me, even though she's seen it before and hates it... i think we're sleeping with the lights on and in the same bed tonight... still freaks me out.

There are a few loose ends in it, yes. But I'm sure it makes sense somehow. I saw at the video store today, right next to the DVD, another movie called "Ringu" and it said it was the original to "the ring." so i have no idea, and no intention, of finding that out!

SATX*APhi 03-10-2003 05:00 AM

Ringu is the original version, which happens to be an Asian film, I think. We saw bits and pieces of it during the "Don't look here" which I really didn't watch.

finally caught it this weekend at my girlfriend's house. It was really good. I think I overhyped it in my head and it didn't really blow me away. But it was good. Very creative. But that scene where Samara was pushed down the well confused me. I thought it was taking place in the 1800s or something. But it was a really good movie. I like that it didn't answer every single question at the end of the movie. I don't mind a little extra mystery. The next scary mystery movie I'm looking forward to is Identity. I think the trailers are already doing a good job of not explaining everything and the movie looks really creepy.

My favorite aspect of this movie is just when it's over ,it's not over, but it doesn't stretch itself thin either. Because you are so positive that you're about to see the credits come, and its not even close. I love that.

How does Samara kill her victims?

Ring 2 comes out next summer. I've already seen the teaser trailer & it looks creepy like the first one did.
