video Japanese; 'Ring'?

[xyzzy@bok]

Japanese Ring? is that the one that supposedly you die within a week of renting it or something?

Thought I'd elaborate a bit for you. The idea was that some teenagers watched this video (no one knows how they got it, it just 'appeared' in a collection) and as soon as you watch it the phone rings and a voice says '7 days' and within a week whoever watched it was dead. The original film was done quite a few years ago and subtitles kinda take the fear out of the film, but it was re-done at the beginning of the year in true Hollywood style, and it was good. Not to everyone's taste though, we saw it at the cinema and thought it was great, but some bloke walked out half way through muttering it was a load of sh1te! :)
