Darkest greetings everyone! It's Linda with another movie review for you. This month we will be looking at The Ring. This movie was awesome! I was sufficiently spooked within the first ten minutes and I don't scare easily. The Ring is done in fashion of the Sixth Sense (Bruce Willis) and Urban Legends (Jared Leto). The special effects were great and nicely done. If you take four dead high school students, a video tape surrounded in mystery, a little boy who has visions, and seven days til immenent death, you have the ingredients for a horror/suspense classic. If you are able to, turn up the volume while watching this movie. The sounds alone had my skin crawling. Thumbs up all across the board!! Oh and be prepared to turn on all the lights if you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of watching the film :o)
Other Recommendations: City of Angels (Nicholas Cage), Intersection (Richard Gere), and Sixth Sense (Bruce Willis)
