Director : Norio Tsuruta
Running Time : 99 mins
In this prequel to the Ring movies, Sadako Yamamura (Nakama) decides to become an actress – a brave step for her as she is painfully introverted due to the terrible visions she experiences. In spite of her good looks, her fellow actors find her a little off, and when she is given the lead in the play following the death of the original lead, the rest of the cast start to suspect that she may have had something to do with her death.
Although nowhere near as creepy as Hideo Nakata’s original movie, this is still a little unnerving in parts. Granted, Sadako is no longer a frightening figure as she is shown to be quite attractive, and when the distorted Sadako figure appears towards the end it looks like some really bad CGI. Despite this, this is still quite an interesting origin story that fills in some of the gaps in the Sadako mythology, though doesn’t really explain why she imprinted her curse onto video tape.
