just watched 'The Ring',

its the scariest film ive ever seen bar none - if you havent then go! dunno who the hell gave it a 15 - no way would i give it less than an 18 - very clever script, camera work, blah blah - the point of my rant is GO SEE IT!
thats it!

Huh. Probably rated by the same tosser who gave 'Ghost Ship' an 18. My girlfriend fell asleep in the cinema. She said the last time she was frightened was when I dropped my pants.

Ah no: that was when she last had a good laugh. I remember now.

ahh, but have u watched the original japanese version???
i came across a VCD (pirate DVD) in japanese some time ago without any subtitles....
watched it - scared shit out of my pants...
then downloaded the synopsis from the internet in english to find out if I understood the film correctly and then got scared shitless again...!

are talking about the newly released Ghost ship, cos' if we are, that was total pants. i rented a copy from Bbusters, and not only was the acting crap, but the film was a umpteenth generation copy as well, moneyback please

Yup, that's the one. I wouldn't have bothered, but me Julie is into scary films for some reason. I wish they'd use this virtual-reality technology to create something worth watching. They did a half-decent job with the boat in Titanic, but obviously you have to have some 'willing suspension of disbelief' since everyone knows the ship has been under 2.5 miles of water for 90 years. Speaking of which, have that Japanese consortium actually started building the Titanic replica yet?

I caught an hour or so of 'Ginger Snaps' last night whilst waiting for the GP.

It weren't to bad in a 'sitting up on yer own' kinda way! Well, it made me jump a couple of times


Edited to add, on the sci-fi channel. The things you do in the wee small hours that you wouldn't normally do?

I've been fortunate enough to see both "Ghost Ship" and "The Ring" (both were the brunette's decision)

To be honest we just laughed our arses off through both of them. Scarey..? not a bit... about as scary as an episode of Rainbow.

I thought The Ring had some good 'jump out of your seat' monments but to be honest they are dead easy to do these days; spooky usic and something jumps up and goes Boo! That aside, its creepy and I thought very well made.. Not upset because I missed Jackass to see it.. Worth a watch I think..

nothing beats the Exorcist yet IMO
