The film is restored from the original negative in glorious high definition and supplemented by a wealth of archival and newly created bonus materials. With RINGU, director Hideo Nakata (DARK WATER) unleashed a chilling tale of technological terror on unsuspecting audiences, which redefined the horror genre, launched the J-Horror boom in the West and introduced a generation of moviegoers to a creepy, dark-haired girl called Sadako. The film’s success spawned a slew of remakes, reimaginations and imitators, but none could quite boast the power of Nakata’s original masterpiece, which melded traditional Japanese folklore with contemporary anxieties about the spread of technology.
