The premise

THE RING goes ‘found footage’ Peruvian in a terrific example of the continually igniting South American new horror wave. A group of media students embark on a documentary project covering ‘Reaction Videos’ - filming people watching intense shock footage online to monitor their psychological effect. And they find one example so terrifying the viewers have all died in mysterious circumstances. But what exactly is on this gruesome Internet footage? Their search leads to an obscure corner of cyberspace known as the Dark Web, a Quechua curse dating from the Spanish Inquisition and a demonic power they cannot escape from.

Horror Vault's take

A group of Peruvian media students set out to document how people react to disturbing videos online — until they uncover a clip so lethal that every viewer has wound up dead. Their investigation pulls them deeper into the dark web and into a centuries-old Quechua curse that refuses to stay buried. This Peruvian found-footage chiller fuses internet-age paranoia with pre-Columbian folklore, delivering a fresh cultural spin on the cursed-media subgenre. The deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes that some things were never meant to be watched.
