This film is a modern remake of this classic horror film. The film is well directed, well shot, good story and the characters are engaging from the start. Picture quality is excellent and on Blu ray is well worth watching. I cannot comment on the audio as I did not listen to it using a surround sound system but nevertheless sound quality is very acceptable. Good film and would recommend.

I've always liked japanese horrors! This american re-make is pretty good :-) If you like the ring (Japanese) and any other 'tartan' related japanese horrors then you'll like this film. It's creepy.
I have seen the original which in my view was one of the best of the influx of japanese horrors (The Ring, The Grudge etc) which came out at that time. In fact I have probably seen all of the originals and their American counter parts, a few of which exceeded the originals. In this case the US version has the benefit of Jessica Alba. Its a long time seen I saw the original but from recollection the story varied a bit. Not just with the setting. Not a great problem in its self. The acting is very good, and it has some unsettling and quite spooky moments. I don't think it quite lived up to the original but it is still an entertaining evenings viewing. I would give it 3 out of 5. Watch it and make your own mind up.
