The Movie That KILLS | The Ring (2002 Film)
Update: 2025-08-08
Description
In Gore Verbinski’s adaptation of RING (and the original Japanese version) analog film takes the spotlight representing a medium in transition. The result is a turning point in modern horror cinema, as the artform transitioned into a more digital age. In episode 355, join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they compare the film to the Koji Suzuki novel, unpack the filmmaking choices that make this movie feel cursed, relive the nostalgic terror of seeing this movie as children, and finally cast their votes on which version is ultimately best: the book or the movie?
