Plot:
Japanese director Hideo Nakata adapts another story by RING novelist Koji Suzuki for a supremely creepy tale of atmospheric horror. Yoshimi (Hitomi Kuroki) is a soon-to-be single mother going through ...( read more

Better than the remake, although I could see the story stretching to be made into a movie length script from its original short story format.
A few, very FEW scary parts, but overall slow and uninteresting and with a ending which was disappointing.
i don't believe that this is as good as Nakata's other work- sure it has all the thrills but it was lacking in suspense and true horror- i was a little dissapointed!!
ah, the ending. very oh-my-god-ish. cute kid. i love the bag (i wanna have it!). iconic raincoatgirl. cool psychological situations. poor mommy, good acting mommy. i like it.
A melancholy, waterlogged, immensely sad "horror" movie. A lot of the real horror, though much more covert than the supernatural elements, comes from the themes of abandonment and regret, which come across surprisingly effectively. Hitomi Kuroki gives a smash performance as a mentally worn mother embroiled in a bitter custody battle, adding a lot of poignancy to the role.
The ending is extremely mysterious and vaguely sad at the same time.
EDIT: Saw the remake, made me realize that this film wasn't THAT great, dropped the rating accordingly. It's still worth watching, though.
