The Ring (2019x59)

Air date: Oct 30, 2019

A remake of the spooky Japanese film Ringu, The Ring starring Naomi Watts was a massive hit in the early 2000’s. It not only made the phrase “seven days” a creepy part of pop culture but also inspired Hollywood to remake a ton of other Japanese films thanks to its success. Although the movie is undoubtedly creepy, it also raises a bunch of questions. Like what happens if you’re not anywhere near a phone when you watch the tape? What happens if you’re standing next to a Jumbotron when Samara decides to crawl out of the screen? Why didn’t Rachel ask her son, who was communicating with Samara, for a bunch of information? Why did Samara’s dad bonk Rachel over the head before having his electricity party? And why did this ghost leave so many clues?!
