Ring 2

Hideo Nakata's sequel to his notoriously creepy RING continues the chilling tale after the unforgettable finale of the original. Reporter Reiko Asakawa (Nanako Matsushima) continues her investigation of the ghostly Sadako and the cursed videotape. Meanwhile, Reiko's son, Yoichi (Rikiya Otaka), begins to show signs of psychic powers similar to those of Sadako. Meanwhile, the former gilrfriend of Reiko's ex-husband, Mai Takano (Miki Nakatani), becomes involved in the search as well. As with the first film, watching this movie alone is not recommended.

  Not a patch on the original
  
  Ring 2 follows on directly from where the original left off, with the same characters and plot. Reiko is still trying to find a way to stop the curse of the ... read more »
