I just saw this movie, and I still have a lot of questions. I hope someone can give me some insight on what the think are the answers:
How was the tape made?
Would people who watched it die because of the girl?
Who was to blame? The girl, mother or father?
What is the ending about?
-
The tape was made because the lil girl has ESP powers and it was made to spread evil.
Yes.
The Girl
If you make a copy of the tape you don't die. Thats why she lived and at the end the lil kid makes a copy so he lives.

amazing movie, im buyin that fa sho on dvd
-
This movie is just...messed up. The trailer creeped me out, the movie even more so. I no longer watch TV, or tapes. I blinde dmyself, cut off my arms and legs, and now pray to God he will defend me from Rosie O'Donnel tapes. We are talking about that movie where Rosie O'Donnel gets married, aren't we?
-
OH...so they only reason the boy and women didnt die is cause they made a copy?!
I thought it was cause they helped her in the well. LIke the women went down there and sort of 'set her free' right?
The guy really didn't do anything so she killed him.
Also, why is SHE crazy? Is it cause she was alienated by the mother and father?
-
I have no idea why she has powers..There is supposed to be a prequil that coming out.
-
Yeah that's why this movie is a trip, Cuz you watch movies like 6th Sense, Fear.Com, Stir Of Echoes and shit like that and they usually find the corpse and things get better. But in this movie, it turned out the girl was Evil and they were better off not finding her at all. In the movie they said she "Just wanted to be heard"... so I guess if you record her tape and show it to someone else you're safe.
Some trippy shit... I was driving to work tha day after I saw the Ring, Day 2, I was stoned, and on tha way to work I see this ladder leaning against this building, with no one around!... WHOA!!! :o crazy huh...

Ha...still one thing though. How was that tape filmed?!
-

peace
-

seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen

What is the ending about?
It's not cause they made a copy of it... see here's the thing, the only way you will live is if you make another person watch the tape, and the only way he/she could live, is if that person makes ANOTHER person watch the movie. In other words, it's a "chain" tape, and the girl inside wants everyone to see what happened to her, and should you choose not spread it to others, she's gonna kill you.
That's why the main character wasn't in danger throughout the movie, cause she made her friend watch it (that guy over there), and he ended up getting killed. And at the end, when she says to the little kid that he's gonna be OK, it's cause she's watching the tape for him, so that the kid won't be in any more danger.
-
^^^ That aint right, at tha end they were making a copy right? I dont think they'd be able to fool tha ghost that easy... it's a chain tape so he's either gotta show someone new the tape, so I guess he was making a copy..
Murrow, How did she make the tape? I dont really get it either, I think it's cuz, remember how in the other tape, where they're talkin to tha girl, the Doctor keeps asking her How she made these pictures... they were these black photo type pictures of a horse and shit like that... I guess her power had something to do with gettin images on those types of pictures, same shit they use to make movies... that's what I think.
-
^^
Thanks guys. This is making a lot more sense. I guys the girl did have some kind of sickness/gift like ESp and that is how she made the tape.
Some more things...
Why did they all get bloody noses?
What's up with the symbolism of the horse on the shore etc?
Peace
-
All the events in the movie werre portrayed on the tape..The horse fallin overboard is on the tape.....The horse on the shore symbolizes all the horses
killin them selves cuz the girl.

there's so much more to the story that can't be answered by watching the movie alone. that's why in the DVD, the director has another short movie in there that explains in depth everything that occurs throughout the movie (well, this is what I'm told).
And Cliftone... I don't know man. Are you saying that everyone who watches it must make a copy of it? So then the woman was making a copy of the tape on behalf of the kid? It doesn't make sense to me. But anyways, to each his own

I bought tha DVD... I haven't gotten around to checkin out tha extra features... I usually dont... but I'm gonna check tha Features on this DVD cuz I heard they had some crazy extra stuff....
She wasn't making the tape on behalf of the kid, She was holding the kids hands while he pushed the Record button.... But I'm not even sure if they have to Record another tape, they probably just need to show it to somebody... but she didnt wanna take no chances.
-
Dam sounds like 1 fucked up confusing movie. The trailer made the movie look awesome but it just sounds like everyone that watched it didnt understand it.
-
homie its simple, the girl wanted to be heard.......so makin a copy of that shit and showin it to someone else gets u off the hook but then if that kat dont copy it, his gon be fucked up by the evil women!
murrow..........day 3 - tick tock tick tock

LoL...oh shit my nose is bleeding.
I saw that extra footage and it just seems like all new footage that was left on the cutting room floor. Didn't seem to help.
Also, has anyone here seen the Jap version? Heard it was mad scarier.
-
seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen seeeeeeeeeeeen
-
I just saw tha extra footage... I think it helps a lil...
Tha jap version is Ringu, you can see tha preview to it on tha DVD, it looks alright, just kinda low budget. But who needs crazy special effects in a horror movie.
-
Morrow, the reason it doesn't make sense is because there's so many plot holes in it, it's leaking, lol.
It's hard to make a movie like that though where the whole thing has a perfect explanation. Everybody that saw the tape had to SHOW it to someone else, not necessarily make a copy. The kid made a copy so they could mail it off to someone. They showed the whole tape at the end because it was supposed to mean, if you didn't show somebody else the movie,you'd die too, LOL so the only way to NOT DIE was to come back and see the movie with your friends, who would then have to bring their friends, etc. Novel, eh?

which is exactly what I said
-
Well, Kinda, but I added the little "Eh?" at the end. You dont know nothin' bout that theia.

i learned today that there are Ringu , Ring 0 , and Ring 2 in Japan....Those tell the story pretty good.
