The Ring 2 (2005)

Hey guys,

Welcome back to my blog. Today I welcome you with the sequel of one of my favorite movies I recommended about half a month ago. I thought that it would be great to give a review of the Ring franchise within this month because of the close release of the third installment, Rings. Rings is scheduled to release next month. I watched the trailer and it excited me cause I loved the first two parts a lot. Anyways, despite the absence of Naomi Watts and David Dorfman, this movie does seem like a fresh entree on the plate of the horror cuisine fan, though maintaining the environment, feel and scares of the original Ring movies.

Now, as I have started to wander off the main topic here, I will give you a short summary of The Ring 2. Before that, there is another thing worth mentioning. You will enjoy The Ring 2 only if you have watched the first part. Anyways, Rachel and her son Aidan move to San Francisco looking forward to a new start after the tragic death of Aidan's father and Rachel's boyfriend. They wish to forget the terrible memories of Samara, but does Samara wish to forget them? I sure don't think so! Samara makes a comeback, stronger than ever killing more people who watch the tape and targeting Rachel and Aidan. Rachel is devastated when she learns that Samara is back to haunt her and her son and starts a re investigation on how to make Samara leave for ever. Meanwhile, Aidan is possessed by the evil Samara and starts behaving odd and hurting people. The rest of the story I leave for you to watch.

This movie is as good as the first. Some scenes like the deer attack one fail to seem scary and may give some of you the laughs. This movie has included more bold scenes than the first. The scene of Samara climbing up the well in the end is unforgettably scary. The thing I love about The Ring movies is that it does not rely upon blood or gore to make it scary. Rather, it places an importance on creepy visuals and unusually scary scenes to give people the frights. Anyways, this movie is surely a unicorn treat to those 0.000001% of the people who loved The Ring and haven't watched the second part.

See you later alligators!
