I htink this is the beginning of a new wave of horror films ...
It succeded where the italians did not (for the masses, not us informed folk).
I can see this potentially spurring north america into looking at other countries for inspiration as well. (god knows they have no ideas of their own)

thats my prediction anyway ..
That is great arguement for why Ringu will someday be thought of as a classic!
