The Ring Two
2005 Directed by Hideo Nakata
Synopsis
The dead don't sleep.
A terrifying legacy haunts a single mother in this sequel to the frightening box-office hit The Ring. Hoping to leave their terrifying experiences in Seattle behind them, Rachel Keller and her son, Aidan, move to the small town of Astoria, OR, where Rachel takes a job writing for the local newspaper. When Rachel learns of an unexplained murder, which occurred after a teenager watched a strange videotape with his girlfriend, she suspects her past is following her and she begins looking into the case. Rachel believes that the otherworldly Samara has come back; however, as she tries to convince others of the young girl's powers, her own son falls ill and is hospitalized, and Rachel's stories fail to convince either Dr. Emma Temple, who suspects Rachel is guilty of child abuse, or David Rourke, one of Rachel's colleagues who fears for Aidan's safety.

This film is shit. Total lack of any subtlety, horrible dialogue and piss poor CGI. It just went on for an eternity seemingly; after 30 mins I was completely sick of it and just waited and waited for it to end.
Don't watch it.

Not as good as part one, but still a good horror movie which spreads a creepy atmosphere.

The special effects are nice to look at, but otherwise it's crap.

The scariest aspect of this film? The CGI deer.
-
Holy crap, those CGI deer are the greatest thing ever. That's the hardest I've laughed at a movie in a long time. Shame about everything else, really.

Gore Verbinski's The Ring was a near perfect horror movie which still ranks as one of my favorites, this sequel directed by Hideo Nakata, the creator of the original Japanese versions, was incredibly disappointing and very badly made. Everything which made the first so good has been ditched, the magnificent light blue colour scheme = gone, the fantastic mystery/thriller narrative = gone and the damn right creepy atmosphere = gone. What was removed has been replaced with tacky CGI, bad pacing and a very overlong runtime and some very bad decisions (They decided to allow Samara to speak in this sequel). Some of the sound used and Naomi Watts' performance are still pretty good but this sequel lacks everything good from the previous installment and is an overall disappointment.

I'm a bit torn about The Ring Two. If I really think about the plot, I can't help but laugh. But director Hideo Nakata (director of the first two Ringu films) treats the material very seriously, which allowed me to look past everything that seems so silly. The film doesn't have the same great look as Verbinski's, and it runs a tad too long, but I otherwise found The Ring Two enjoyable.
