Blu-ray Review: ‘The Ring’ Remake Initially Frightens Before Going in Circles
Submitted by mattmovieman on April 3, 2012 - 8:54amCHICAGO – I have a certain begrudging affection for Gore Verbinski’s 2002 remake of Hideo Nakata’s 1998 thriller, “Ringu,” despite the fact that I know in my heart of hearts that it doesn’t really work. Verbinski’s film falters precisely when it should be at its scariest, and yet it still has enough memorably eerie moments to inspire at least a couple sleepless nights.
