Fun fact, in the dvd release of the Ring, if you pressed up with the controller in the dvd menu enough times that the cursor disappeared then pressed enter, the full cursed video would play in it's entirety. It could not be paused, skipped or fast forwarded and at the end the audio would play a phone ringing two times.
Oh f that lol. I rented it when it came out i dont remember that! then again, maybe i got it on VHS, which was still on the go even though they were being phased out.
@@paulinegallagher7821 one time i left a blank vhs tape at the videoclub store next to The Ring's box
Oh that's awesome. I never knew that
Same with the japanese version. I paniced once I realised I couldnt pause nor stop the video. I hid under my blanket and just waited it out xD. Guess my blanket shielded me from the curse haha.
How did I not know this, I still have the DVD, I need to check it out.
A friend of mine saw this movie in a theatre with a leaky roof. They had buckets out that got emptied between screenings. Which meant watching The Ring with the constant sound of water drip-drip-dripping in the background...
shut up i love this
What about the noise of boiling water. Right before the girl dies at the beginning of the movie you hear that weird “water boiling” noise
@@shesscaredmood 🤣
@@shesscared 7 DAYS...... (.........ago that this was posted lol)
I think Ring (1998) AKA “Ringu” is better. but that’s because I’m a purist
Samara coming out of the tv is still terrifying and iconic 21 years later
But Sadako is scarier and has a much better backstory.
@@adamafam4412 It's a tie.
@@adamafam4412Who is sadako? I always thought sadako and samara were the same person lol
The Ring creeps me out to no end, but it’s funny, I actually think Samara coming out of the tv is the least scariest part of the movie for me
@@Webarebears8-9the original character is Sadako , Samara is just the American version of it . Think of it like a variant of the same character, since they’re both base of the same character from the Japanese Novel.
The "I-saw-her-face" jump scare hit me so hard the first time I saw this film.
I mean it’s funny because they look more rotten and dry, almost like Samara herself. But in Nakata’s adaptation they look normal but with a twisted sense of fear on their face, to me that’s more terrifying
🎶now I'm a believer!🎶
I love how this movie is mainly SUSPENSE. Not a ton of jump scares, it's the suspense and knowing what is coming that makes your blood race.
Yes, the Grudge was scarier
@@nsasupporter7557and yet… it’s the fifth entry in the Ju-On film series as well as the first in the subseries or Grudge compilation, which consists of The Grudge (2004), The Grudge 2 (2006), The Grudge 3 (2009), The Grudge (2020), Tales From The Grudge (2006) & The Grudge 1.5 (2006)
also The Grudge (2004) was helmed by Takashi Shimizu, and is a partial remake to the Ju-On saga spanning 2000-2003, but also the original Ju-On timeline Takashi Shimizu had created we have Katasumi (1998), 444444444 (1998), Ju-On: The Curse (2000), Ju-On: The Curse 2 (2000), Ju-On: The Grudge (2002) & Ju-On: The Grudge 2 (2003)
Nah, this movie is kind of lame compared to the original.
@@mesalgearsolid right
This film was the first actual horror movie I ever saw. It scarred me as a kid. For a good while I was afraid to even close my eyes in the shower out of fear that samara would be standing there waiting to kill me when I opened them. Nevertheless it ended up sparking my interest in the horror film genre
I’m glad I’m not the only one was scared to shower hahaha
"But maybe showers remind me of Psycho too much
That's why I always feel like somebody's watchin' meeeee" XD
My mom and dad watched it when it came out and my mom genuinely believed that she was haunted lol
This. But for me, the biggest trauma was The Grudge.
@@valentinovigovv yes, the Grudge was way scarier than the Ring. But both original Japanese films are better
Fun fact: apparently, one of the marketing tactics for this film was to just leave VHS tapes containing nothing but the cursed video at random places, with no explanation or context whatsoever.
The absolute best part of the movie is when the kid goes “you HELPED her??” Man that shot chills through me the first time I watched that as a kid. I was on a week vacation from school and I rented it my parents were gone and I started and stopped it like 5 times before just getting through it. I really loved it and it opened the door for my love of horror
"Why would the well be here? It wouldn't be here" lol she stumbled across the correct info before the tape was even viewed
i didn't even remember i had said that until i went back and was editing 😭 i was like "oh... damn" 😂
The subconscious at work.
Can someone tell me the time stamp?
The girl can kill with a thought. She terrorized the horses and made them kill themselves. When she kills Noah at the end she just looks at him and wishes him dead. She's a malevolent, super-telekinetic killing machine. The original Japanese series of (four) films explains it more fully.
Honestly even though I prefer the original, this remake has the right atmosphere. Lots of horror movies just have scares (especially american remakes), but this movie feels uncomfortable even when nothing is going on, and that's very much in line with the original. It feels bleak and hopeless, which is what japanese horror is all about.
I love Japanese horror, and still prefer this over the original. I just think it's tighter and more well-made.
The rare remake better than the original.
True.
@adgato75 That's fair honestly. This is one of those remakes that stands on its own and I can see why some people might prefer it over the original. Even though I prefer the original, I have to admit it's pretty damn close.
Yes, those green-ish colors did the trick pretty damn well.
@@adgato75 Nah, just feels overproduced. It never pulls you in, just feels like you are watching a film - which might sound strange, but you are not supposed to be so aware of this fact. It has a couple of moments here and there, but then goes back to realising it's an American remake. The original pulls you in so much more, it has a real sense of atmosphere that is missing from 90% of the remake.
interesting thing, the distortion effect on photo's is probably her seeing people through the water of the well.
Ugh thank you for blurring the horse part. It still haunts me 18 years later.
I was never afraid of horses before I saw that scene. After that I had a recurring nightmare that a black horse chased me through a field and stomped me to death. I love horses but that was terrifying
@@lilscenechick1995 My fear of horses started with The Brothers Grimm, looking back the movie is super goofy but it was horrifying as a child.
Even though many people didn't like it, I enjoyed the sequel The Ring 2 . It gives this story more of a closure. This might be unpopular but would love to see you react to it.
The Ring 2 is very underrated, i have no idea why people hate it so much.
I loved The Ring 2, but the third one...
The third one doesn't exist!! I keep telling myself that
I also liked it
yes, i love the 2nd one, the whole theme of Samara wanting Rachel as her mother and posses Aidan, love that.
I was about 9 when we saw this in the movie theatre. Obviously, I had nightmares. Didn't want to have a TV in my bedroom, and always slept with my arms under the covers. I didn't watch the movie again until I was probably 16 or 17. Now I watch it all the time with no problems. But I was def too young when I first saw it.
My sister had a friend over to watch it when I was about four and for some reason I was watching it too. All I remember from it is calmly leaning over the side of my chair to throw up.
Same. I couldn’t be in a room with a tv for weeks. 😂
@HzizsVynryn I had covered my eyes at the part where she crawls through the TV, so I never even saw that part. My aunt screamed and flung her arms and hit me in the chest by accident lmao
Did you ever see The Grudge? That really affected me because there was a scene in a bedroom that shows that the character isn't safe and it terrified me. Hiding under the covers was my safety when recovering from horror movies and that damn film took that safety away from me.
@scottianson5133 the Grudge didn't scare me as much as the Ring, but it was definitely memorable. Both enjoyable movies as an adult.
I literally got a horse racing ad right in the middle of the horse scene…
i-
That’s foul
Just wanna clarify something. When they discover Samara's room in the barn and Noah says 'not alone' he's referring to the horses. Samara killed the horses because they 'kept her up at night' but that's the lie she told the doctors at the facility. She really killed the horses because Anna worked with them very closely and loved them. In her eyes, they came between her and her mother. In the tape Rachel watches at the Morgan ranch you can see the camera in Samara's room showcasing that she never sleeps. It all ties back into the horses. She drove the horses mad because they kept her up at night, but she never sleeps. Samara's true nature is sprinkled throughout the movie, and it's so well done. She's an evil little girl. She lied, and then manipulates Rachel and Noah to set her free.
Yeah this is what most people don't understand, I always see people say Samara was innocent, but she literally wasn't and she herself admits it in the recording, "You don't wanna hurt people. *But I do and I'm sorry."* she burns horrible things into peoples minds and kills unprovoked, she's chaotic evil. The original Japanese story Sadako (Samara) is actually more on the innocent side before becoming an onryo of pure hate, but in this version Samara is just evil right off the bat.
Sadako never had this issue until Ring 0: Birthday (2000), but it’s handled much better, treated as a split personality or “second” Sadako. This is ultimately why some of the Japanese Ring movies are better, 5 of them also predate the silly American remake so yeah
@@thehorrorarchive Sadako is definitely the better written character. Her story and character are just portrayed in a much more compelling way than Samara. Until Ringu:0 her true nature had never been directly spelled out, meaning viewers would all draw their own conclusions on whether or not Sadako was truly evil or driven to evil by her parents actions. Sadako is also pretty chilling because she's legit only on screen for a couple minutes in Ringu. Samara constantly appears throughout The Ring. Hearing her speak and seeing her throughout the movie kinda made the ending of the film fall a little flat. She just looked like a zombie, and there was nothing surprising about it.
I thought Noah meant she wasn't alone because she had the TV.
@@TJMalana I mean yeah, in a way metaphorically she wasn't alone, but she also wasn't literally alone because of the horses. Both work.
The grudge should be next if you haven’t already seen it!!
Also- the skeleton key
But the original! Ju - on!
@@freya7084yeees!
@@Taylo791”the Skelton Key?” Who the hell watches that movie lol
@@nsasupporter7557 it’s a fun movie I haven’t watched in years that this reaction made me think of (probs just cause of blonde leads lol)
You're reaction to the body in the closet is exactly how I feel watching it again for the 10th time, it gets me EVERY SINGLE TIME!
Tomoko’s was better
The way that this movie was shot was so perfect. I can't watch this movie without feeling depressed afterwards. I've tried to think of why this is the case (besides the obvious dark theme of the story) and the only thing I can think of is how the lighting was done. It's so dark with weird blue/green tints and rain throughout the whole thing. It's just so well shot for a horror movie.
The movie has some of the best cinematography and photography ive seen in a horror movie. It creates a great ambiance and environment as well as an beautifully eerie tone. It rides in between melancholia, a sense of terror, a sense of urgency as if being chased by the days, a tension that is subtle but unbearable, and yet sadly beautiful. The blue color grading makes it stand out and yet keep a cool aspect to the cloudy days permeating this sense of lostness in the days.
they really kept the atmosphere perfect, but the japanese original is a whole other monster in of itself, it's pure uncomfortability through and through, still one of my top 5 horrors movies ever made.
It’s barely different, just worse effects and more plot contrivances. The American version is actually closer to the source material - just because something is foreign doesn’t make it magical.
@@Halovex Neither movies are anything close to the source material my guy... They both take huge creative liberties it's just Ringu is slower paced while The Ring is a thriller so it's to the point, if you compare both to the book they both do things that are more faithful than the other, but they're both equally condensed and inaccurate.
Until you realize “The Japanese version” has dozens of sequels. In fact there’s 9 Japanese Ring movies as we speak
and they’ll be more in the following years
in total there’s 14
The moment I saw this thumbnail I needed to see Caitlin’s reaction to *that* scene. Was not disappointed 😂
i'm still upset
Whenever I go to rewatch this movie that scene is hard to watch. What did the horse do to anyone 😢
@@Jennilynneit was a horse, it was bound to hurt someone eventually if it hadn't already 🙃
I can’t rewatch the last few minutes of the first episode of The Walking Dead either. I hate when the animals die. Its just so much sadder than when a person dies. Cause the animals are usually just innocent bystanders, ya know?
Yea, im probably heartless and cruel and w/e just don’t kill the dogs or cats or the other cute little animals okay?!?
Lady falls into well and survives: unbelievable
Ghost girl comes out of tv: Believable
Caitlin, so a “funny” fact about this movie is that the actress that plays Samara also voiced Lilo in Lilo & Stitch, so it kinda makes the movie less creepy once you know that 😂
Lilo had a dark side to her, tho... "My friends deserve to be punished"? Gurrrrrrrl...!
Oh my god what an insane juxtaposition! That's such a cool fact!!
I can't un hear it now! Evil Lilo! 😂
I never knew it was a remake of a Japanese film until a year ago. Most definitely an iconic horror movie of the 2000’s. The image of a girl crawling out a tv will always stick with people.
What? How didn't you know that, Ghostface? You're supposed to be a horror film expert! 😂
He’s a western horror film expert, whereas I’m an expert on Asian horror films
I can assure you there’s 9 Japanese Ring movies and 1 Korean remake as well
but I don’t just stop at movies, video games, flash games, manga, comics, tv series, you name it
This is the movie that I watched as a kid and left me TRAUMATIZED. there wasn’t smart tvs back then and every time there wasn’t signal I’ll just run to unplug it because every time I heard that noise I was sure she was gonna come out of the tv😭
I’ll never forget the first time I watched this movie. My older cousin bootlegged it right after it came out and forced his younger sister and myself (same age) to watch it with him. I forced myself to sleep during the movie because I knew I’d get nightmares. Once it ended, they woke me up because our landline was ringing and since I hadn’t actually watched the movie, I had to answer it. I pick up the phone and all I hear is heavy breathing on the other end. The phone rings again, and I answer it. Apparently, the neighbor had gotten drunk with their parents and fallen in the woods between the houses and broke his ankle. He needed help getting to an ambulance LOL.
Meanwhile, I remember after a friend of mine who had the French DVD sent me a rip of the full 4:3 uncropped Japanese cursed video, I recorded that onto a VHS tape, then proceeded to watch the VHS tape. Right at the end of it, the power went out and my neighbor decided to phone me. I nearly had a heart attack.
The Ring is a classic
It Is For Sure But I Found It Overrated
the original is "ringu"
It’s a mediocre horror movie so was the Grudge
This was the first horror movie that I ever watched. It was a night in 2003 when I was 6 years old. It was about to be broadcast on TV cable 📺. My brother and sister prepared everything to watch it; they moved the couch 🛋️, prepared the popcorn 🍿, turned off the lights, and I could see that they were so excited about it that I begged my mom to let me watch it. When she finally let me, I ran and sat down between them 👨👧👩 and watched the whole thing. That experience was the beginning of my love for horror movies and also the beginning of my fear of the dark, the kind that makes you run when you turn off the light. As expected, my brothers pranked me a lot afterwards, especially by leaving me alone in a dark room and screaming that Samara was coming for me. Bastards!
I saw it when it first came out in the theater in 2002, I was 15.
It’s was an unpleasant experience because I was sick at the time
This is my favorite horror movie of all time. I really love how it's filmed: the editing, directing and sound design always stand out to me. And the way they shot Samara's video will ALWAYS creep me out. No jump scares, just awful and disturbing imagery. It's great!
The thing I like about the '98 Japanese movie (as there are several adaptations of the novel) and this remake is that both emphasize this idea of a family that isn't "meant to be," or doomed, which ofc is a favorite in horror. There's obvious parallels between Rachel's family and Samara's, right down to a child with psychic powers. This definitely is my favorite version tho. Gore Verbinski and crew really nailed that cold aesthetic with that greenish tint that haunts the whole movie, not to mention helping shift trends away from the dwindling slasher genre over to supernatural horror in mainstream for awhile.
30:48 then you'll love SIlent Hill, the whole movie is the main character searching for clues!
"He's so cute say something" - WE DONT HAVE ENOUGH TIME
LMAOOOO
I watched this with a group of friends - this was way back when ppl actually turned their cell-phones off when going to the movies - and when we came back out and turned them on again one of my friends got a call almost immediately. Yes, we did scream.
Yay. So glad that you’re reacting to this movie. I still remember watching this movie when it came out. The people in my theater nearly screamed their lungs out at the tv scene. To this day, this movie remains a classic to me, and realizing that they shouldn’t have released Samara remains one of the best twists in the movie history to me.
The Ring was my first horror movie (I was 16 and had been avoiding scary for a long time, but I was in a mood). A friend had invited me to come babysit a mansion for friends with her. In the woods. In a thunder storm. With TVs in every room and a cable system so complicated that we couldn’t figure out how to get anything but snow. And horses and mirrors and their dog barking at nothing. We also got a phone call with no one on the other end after watching. It was awful. I didn’t watch another horror movie for years.
Personally I find The Ring super creepy because nothing is explained. It feels like a genuine nightmare where nothing makes complete sense lol. But I can definitely see why some people find that frustrating. Also I like the character of Rachel because I relate to her type A personality so much 😂
A lot of the ghost/haunting elements derive from Japanese ghost stories and how hauntings work in their culture which doesn’t always translate well to a Western audience. It’s not until I watched a lot more Japanese horror and films like the grudge that it made more sense. All I know is Samara scared the crap outta me as a kid and she still does to this day. A tv with static is one of the creepiest things to me now.
Naomi Watts absolutely eats in this role, her devastation when Aiden watches the tape is so palpable! This is still my favorite horror movie to date, with the cinematography, blue/green color-grading, the musical score! I love every bit of it. Also, the moment where we see Rachel’s niece curled up dead in the closet is still the scariest jump-scare I’ve ever seen in my life😂 incredible haha
edit: for some clarification, Samara is very much an evil demon child🤣 the film plays on the idea of “thoughtography” or a type of psychic image making where the “artist” (for lack of better terms lol) burns images onto film that they originally had seen or imagined. Samara has this supernatural ability, which is why the doctors in the mental hospital videos were asking her how she created those images, and she said she just “does”. The way I see it, her “soul” or being remained down in that well for however many years after she died, and once those cabins were built over the well and her family’s land, she was able to burn a whole cursed video tape onto that VHS, doing so using psychic image-making that we’ve already seen her do when she was under evaluation, and she probably made the evil tape using the TV in cabin 12 directly above where her soul was trapped down in the well😂 From there, her viral video went into circulation.
i LOVE Naomi in this movie, her scream when she sees Noah's face is pure acting, love it always.
naomi watts is insufferable. the japanese version is much better.
Seeing this in the theater at 13 was an experience I’ll tell you what… it scarred me for a long time.
I just started watching your channel about a month ago, I binged all of your videos, and now you’re an automatic watch for me. I really enjoy you and your videos. Thanks for everything!
I was just a teenage kid who worked in the theater over the summer when this movie came out. The daytime matinee hours had very little customers so when each time I had to do my usher check rounds in the theaters I dreaded going into the empty theater of the Ring showing due to super creepy and suspenseful atmosphere.
The special features of this DVD had a fake menu screen you could select that waited a moment and then played a generic phone ringer that you could leave on to freak people out, haha.
I know it's comedy, but it would be really fun if you watch Scary Movie after seeing pretty much all the horror movies they make fun of.
Scary Movie 3 was the one that made fun of the Ring. 4 made fun of the Grudge, Saw etc
yes!!! plus the Scary movie movies are peak parody and peak horror/comedy.
Yes, you have to know pretty much every horror movie between years 1970 and 2000 to understand all the jokes.
This movie was the first horror movie i ever watched. I was about four years old, and my sister was having a sleepover with friends at our place. My parents didn't let me watch it, so, naturally, I hid behind the couch and watched the whole movie. So of course I didn't sleep for three months and had nightmares basically every night. Naturally that made me love it and I got obsessed with horror and with feeling scared. As I grew up this movie really shaped me and the horror i enjoyed. I loved it!! thank yiu for the reaction!
I think this is a decent adaptation, as it isn't a straight translation. They knew what to keep and what to change. " frolic in brine, goblins be thine" whole thing being a good example
I had a nightmare once very similar to the horse scene, although it wasn't a horse it was a dog. In the dream I loved the dog, a greyhound (even thoguh I've never had one but in the dream I love it!). Then exactly the same thing that happened to the horse happened to the dog; we were on a ferry, dog got spooked & jumped over board, got sucked into the engines, blood in the water. This was about 3 years before the movie came out and you can imaghine how freaked out I was when I saw it!
This is still one of my all time favorite scary movies. Its so well made & i feel like its been kind of underrated. I see newer movies copying that "I saw her face" jumpscare, its still so jarring to this day.
It's actually very likely that she could easily find the lighthouse. They aren't common, and she looked locally.
You're looking at everything backwards. It didn't happen because of the kids.
Everything was local, or very close geographically. Including Rachel and her niece, who just happened to have the bad luck to stumble into the spot near where the tape was ; at the cabin campground , near the Morgan ranch.
The lighthouse thing is one the thing this movie *did* do better than the 1998 one, because it's actually closer to the novel. Rachel finding the lighthouse in a book called "Lighthouses of America" directly parallels Kazuyuki Asakawa finding the volcano from the novel's tape in a book called "Volcanoes of Japan". I actually love that Verbinski and Kruger did that.
The DVD had an extra on it that is literally the video footage... it's very surreal and creepy watching that on your own. You could always prank someone with it as well I guess lol. Brilliant movie... I love the way it was filmed to be constantly dark, dreary, and muted... there is also The Ring 2 and Rings (but the third one is quite forgettable).
It’s taken a long time to realize it but I think I legitimately got some kind of ptsd from this movie my cousin showed it to me when I was 7 or 8 and it’s the only movie to this day that makes me really uncomfortable if I so much as hear the word “ring” or hear tv static
This was the first horror movie I saw in theaters. My group arrived late and had to sit in the front row. I literally had nightmares for two weeks!
I'm so glad & happy that you reacted to The Ring & liked it, I really loved your reaction to it and you should react to the original Japanese version as well, I love both versions too
#horrorreactions @sinistersouthernbelle
The “Poughkeepsie Tapes” is another found-footage style horror movie. It’s quite underrated, as it seems like it didn’t get a lot of marketing attention, but I do hope you watch it some day. Thanks for this reaction as well!
Seconding this. Poughkeepsie Tapes was very cheaply-produced, and much of the acting isn't very good, but the visuals are wild, and it has one of the most disturbing endings ever.
@@txlyons2937 Oh!😮 Thank you for supporting my comment😊 Yes, I think the movie is fun to watch in a disturbing way, and I wish more people knew about it. Thank you again!
Glad you finally got around to watching this!
So, I remember seeing a preview for this movie, when I went to see a different movie (don't remember which one), back in 2002. All it was was a very normal-looking shot of that small island community, and Rachel saying "Before you die....you see the ring..."
That was the only preview I ever saw for the movie, and it gave nothing away. I didn't even think much about it, after I left the theater.
Flash-forward to....whenever it came out on DVD. I had seen it on the shelves, at Best Buy, and got it, because the cover looked interesting (I didn't look at the back cover). A couple days later, my mom went out shopping, and I was by myself in the house. I had nothing else to do, so I popped in the DVD (still not knowing anything about the movie).
When it was over, I went upstairs, and unplugged the CRT TV/VCR combo that was in my room 😅.
Next up, you should watch "The Grudge".
The tree by the cabin was a Japanese maple. It was probably a nod at the original
ohhh, love that detail
My favourite horror movie of all time. The japanese Version has the actual "cursed tape" as a bonus and once u start it ur remote n stuff dont work to "close" it. You have to literally sit through it or turn off ur TV. But in the original story turning off the TV mid through will get you killed instantly. The books which came before the japanese version of the movie have a whole different and not so science fictioness story to it. Love the books n movies!
Definitely would love to see you watch the grudge as well!
yess
It's a little hard to believe that this had the same director as Pirates of the Caribbean... Definitely one of the best horror remakes of all time.
Gore Verbinski is such an underrated director
i’ve never watched this before so it’ll be fun to get scared alongside u hehe love u caitlin
I may be wrong, but I think Samara wants people to know her story, so whoever watches the video has to make a copy and show it to someone else with seven days or they'll die. And the person they give the video to has to make a copy and show it to someone else, and so on.
After I saw Smile I remember thinking it was just like The Ring but not as good. Glad someone else noticed that too!
I vividly remember watching this for the first time as I watched it when i was a teenager and my tv at the time was on top of my small wardrobe. It reflected onto my mirror, and I sat watching this at sunset but didn't turn on the light as my room turned dark. Got to the end with Noah dying, and I just so happened to glance at my mirror at the second Samara climbs through the tv. It looked like she was climbing through my mirror into my room. Screamed, freaked out my mum and dad, who came rushing up the stairs and made sure for weeks afterwards my light was on when it was dark 😂
We watched this movie at like 8:00 am at my friends house, I was scarred for a month so much I don’t remember anything that happened in it 😭
I can never take this movie seriously after Scary Movie 3 😂
"Cindy! The TVs leaking!"
OMG!
I just watched "The Ring" and "The Ring Two" last weekend!
I enjoyed both of them and they were both good! Great video!
you should watch The Grudge too. not a better movie but more scarier
I Own That Movie But Have Never Watched It. 2000s Horror Movies Tho.
I didn't think so. Just a little Asian kid that meows.
I think the Grudge is a better movie than The Ring. Not better than Ringu though
"More scarier" lol
This was the first horror movie I ever watched at a young age and it scared tf out of me. I didn't watch TV for days after lol
Yassss omg finally, one of my favorite movies ever and the grudge and shutter. The remakes are fun the OGs are the best! I’m so happy!!! Woooo
Not my phone ringing after you mentioning “oh are we going to die?” 😂😂
My good sis you are positively GLOWING in this video!!
Now that I think about it, It Follows has kind of the same practice: a curse that you have to pass along in order to survive.
this movie was my worst nightmare as a child but somehow rewatched it 7538 times lol
2000s is my fav era when it comes to horror movies. would love to see you react to more horror movies from that era
I remember seeing this in theaters when I was ten. I'd seen horror before. Hell, I'd seen a LOT of gory, classic horror. This was the first time I remember being scared by horror.
I needed this today
hope you enjoy!
I was barely old enough to see this movie when it came out, and I was so creeped out. And I couldn't really explain what it was... probably some of the imagery from the tape and the mood throughout the film.
I remember when my dad bought this together with jurassic park around christmas. I was terrified of this movie as a kid and at the same time this movie held a special place in my mind.
Im still able to recall everything of that time period. From the toys, to how I felt, from how the house was decorated, to the weather, everything.
Funfact: samara is donnie darko's sister.
This movie and The Mummy (with Brandon Frasier) gave me nightmares as a kid. I couldn't sleep for a week and if I did it was only a couple hours. My parents regretted it alot😅
The mummy? Cmon
@@oneill765 I was a kid 😅. And it was more specifically when the guy was getting his tongue cut out and wrapped and BURIED ALIVE. And to top it off... The BUGS.. the bugs that crawl under the skin.
Hey Girl! Shout out from the US Marine Corps! Love your reactions so far. If you want to see some scary scary movies imo watch either The Thing (The Original), Malignant, Event Horizon, US, The Others, MEGAN, The Lost Boys, and Hostel (2005)! You'll be pretty hostel after those movies! That was dumb. Also I'd recommend Zombie Land, FREAKY, Trick'rTreat, The Menu, and Happy Death Day for Horror Comedy. I absolutely love your opinion after the movie! Keep up the great reactions!
My favorite horror movie of all time! I LOVE your reactions! Keep them up 🖤
Love your reactions so much!! The Ring is one of my favorite horror movies!! Hopefully you eventually react to “Ring 2” and “Rings”🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
this is one of my FAVORITE horror movies! if you were confused i dont think its just the copy, i think in general you just have to make someone else watch it and "spread" it. If you noticed, thru out the movie ALOT of the different motifs from the cursed video showed up, The ladder outside, the Centipede in the home, The rushing Blood at the boat when the horse fell in, The Chair in the final death scene, its super cool honestly. The sequel to this one has mixed reviews, but id encourage you to check it out if you liked this one!Q
This movie STILL gets me, so disturbing.
I saw this in the theater when it first came out. They've done some re-editing in the years since because in the opening segment when she's going up the stairs, the overhead boom mic was in the shot.
not a horse person, but the *sound* the horse makes in the water has stayed with me since the first time i watched the movie
Watching this video after seeing the movie gave me a huge “OHHH” moment every time I saw one of those little details they brought back in the end
I watched the original one first and I was already a teenager back then like 13 or 14 and I always stay up late watching TV but after I watched the film, I was literally afraid watching TV at night for 2 weeks. No horror movies has done that, except for this one. I really believed the curse was passed on to us who watched the film, lmao anywau, I like this remake too. I can't remember the ring 2 but you should also check that out as well as The Grudge.
Absolutely love the creepy atmosphere of this film with the cold desaturated look, I like the additions that Gore Verbinsky made so it's not just a straight remake of the Japanese film. Would love to see you watch The Eye - its a similar mystery/horror vibe.
11:48 just after she says "lighthouse", I think a face appears on the TV in the static. Never noticed it before!
This movie was my childhood trauma 😖😖
Caitlin, when I saw it in the theater, I really enjoyed it. But what was really trippy, is that I went to the men's room afterword, using the urnal. I PASSED OUT standing at the urnal. No joke. One second, I was standing at the urnal, next thing I knew, lickity boom, boom, down.... I was waking up on the bathroom floor with NO IDEA how long I was out. At least I didn't piss on myself. It's the only time I've ever passed out. Ever.
Bro this version of the Ring traumatized me so much, but also started my love/hate relationship with horror movies
Smile, It Follows, Drag Me To Hell... It's time for the term "Ringlike" to go viral.
OMG. I am watching this on the bike at the gym, and dueing the horse scene, someone merely walked by me and I jumped a foot😅
The Ring is one of my favorites horror thrillers.
Great reaction as always! You should check out the American version of the Grudge (2004), so you can see "Sadako (Samara) VS. Kayako" which is the Ring vs The Grudge
This movie TRAUMATIZED me as a child. I don’t think I’ll ever get the first reveal of the murdered face out of my mind because of the nightmares it gave me 😭🙌
I am so happy. Went out to get lunch and was thinking "Man it'd be nice to watch a she's scared video while I chow down" and imagine my joy and surprise when I got home to see this!
Fun fact, the cabin owner died shortly after as he found the tape and watched it, on the dvd it has a featurete which showed how the curse is spread and the trend it created along with his death! you’ll see in the 3rd movie
