The premise
Journalist Rachel Keller investigates a strange videotape that may be behind the untimely deaths of four teenagers. There is an urban legend about this tape: the viewer will die seven days after watching it. Rachel tracks down the video... and watches it. Now she has just seven days to unravel the mystery of the Ring in order to save herself and her son.
Horror Vault's take
When journalist Rachel Keller pulls at the thread of a rumored cursed videotape linked to four teenage deaths, she stumbles into a mystery far darker than any story she has covered before. The tape is real — and now the clock is ticking for Rachel and those closest to her. Gore Verbinski's American remake of the Japanese J-horror classic trades on slow-burn dread and deeply unsettling imagery rather than cheap shocks. What begins as an investigative thriller gradually reveals something ancient and profoundly wrong lurking beneath the surface.
