    This is the Ring. Instead of boy there is girl. Instead of good it is bad. Nothing scary. Typical Kim Dong-bin's boring film.

    Watch this movie only to appreciate asian horror cinema. It is the same storyline exactly as Ringu, the remake of it, in fact. But The Ring was made after. It is descent, just don't expecty anything new.

    There is nothing in this movie to make it 18+ rated. Does Blockbuster actually watch any of these films? This is just a second rate version of "The Ring". Don't bother. Watch Naomi Watts instead.
