Ringu is better

Rating: 5/10 (24 August 2004)

I saw ringu a while ago and wanted for a while to see this to compare. I watched this today and whereas ringu was the scariest film I've ever seen this wasn't by a mile. Sadako is much much scarier than Samara for a start. Ringu just has a scarier aura whereas this is just like any old american horror film... ie: not very scary at all. My advice is see ringu. It is much better in every way and especially "the scene" (as I have heard it referred to. You'll know what I mean when you see it (well if you see ringu because the ring's version of it is lame in comparison)). If this was original it would be OK but it's not so just watch the original. The Ring - 5/10 Ringu - 10/10
