The Ring (VHS, 2003, Transparent Plastic Sleeve)

Rarely does a scary movie come along and actually scare watchers... The Ring was the first movie I've seen in years that actually spooked the audience with more than just momentary loud noises. Rather, The Ring relies on great cinematography and visuals to produce a strange, creepy movie that gets so twisted during its 90 minutes that the audience never has room or time to step back and realize that the plot doesn't allows make sense. In fact, if the Ring were a book, I would venture to guess that it wouldn't have been successful - but as a movie, The Ring works because the acting is compelling (Naomi Watts is convincingly frightened throughout), the plot is confusingly twisted, and the visuals and filming are superbly done.

I must say I enjoyed it very well. It was well put together. It was not full of all types of satanic sacriligious junk. It was twisted and not you basic cheap horror flick. I watched it for the first time last night. I enjoyed it and plan to go rent part two! Also, I love the fact that it was not full of sex and trash.
