"Ringu" is the original Japanese film that inspired "The Ring," an American remake. Both movies have their own unique approaches to storytelling and horror, and some viewers may find one scarier than the other. It ultimately depends on individual preferences and what elements of horror resonate with each viewer.
The Ring is a 2002 American psychological supernatural horror film directed by Gore Verbinski and written by Ehren Kruger, and stars Naomi Watts, Martin Henderson and Brian Cox. It is a remake of Hideo Nakata's 1998 film Ring, based on the 1991 novel by Koji Suzuki.
