HALLOWEEN 2024 SERIES, MOVIE 2 of 3
Andrew and special guest, Jon Bewley, examine their takes on the meaning of the bone-chilling mega-hit American horror remake from 2002, The Ring. Directed by Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean, Rango), this thrilling and ceaselessly scary modern classic will forever remind us that "what's down the well comes up the bucket."
Andrew and Jon dive deep into such topics as interpretations of what the unique character Samara Morgan represents, the origin of the Japanese title "Ringu," what about the film is so scary, a debate about the look of the film, the story's association with technology, and much more.
IT'S TIME TO WATCH THE TAPE!!!
