Ooo - ooo - The original Ringu is so incredibly creepy... The remake pales in comparison... Same thing with Shutter... But the original Ringu... Good stuff.

I actually like the Grudge remake better; it's by the same director and I feel with the remake he could make some editorial choices that I thought worked... The end was very silly though...

Ditto. Same guy who did The Grudge. Good stuff.

Watched R-Point tonight...

The pros: Definitely atmospheric and all of the characters were definitely human. Good creepy moments.

The cons: Definitely a slow-burner, which is not generally a draw-back, but my ankle was bothering me so I had a hard time sitting still. Would up getting bored. Ultimately, didn't really feel like anything NEW to me. I think that even if I were feeling better, it probably wouldn't have been over a 3 out of 5. Or maybe I'm just turning into a jaded horror viewer...
