It is a remake of Hideo Nakata's 1998 Japanese horror film Ring, based on Koji Suzuki's 1991 novel with the same title. Watts portrays a journalist as she examines a mysterious videotape that seemingly murders viewers seven days after watching it. Ring premiered in theaters on the 18th of October 2002. It was greeted with mostly positive reviews and critics were raving about the film's atmosphere, its visuals and Watts's performance.
