The Ring was actually pretty good. It's more of a psychological thriller, which is what I prefer, like Hitchcock films. Because, I know, you're supposed to be afraid that the girl is going to come after you because you just watched the movie, but whatever. Honestly the only really scary part was that she came out of the TV at the end, a lot of the rest of the movie was just kind of weird. But I'm okay with that, because I can tell you Saw is not my kind of movie (and I haven't even seen it), and this is the sort of thing I'm okay with. I don't think I'd like Freddie Kreuger or any of that sort of stuff, though, because there's no, I dunno, trigger or whatever. You wouldn't have any control over the situation.
Um, plus, I don't really get it. Why is she killing people? Her dad didn't want her, but why the hell did the mother kill her? And she hated the horses because they kept her up at night, but what was happening to the horses? And what was with the freaking tree? Maybe it's because I'm partially deaf (I dunno if that's true technically, but indoor percussion had to have destroyed some of my hearing), but... the story doesn't really make sense. (Plus, I'm such a story ruiner and logician and stuff, couldn't you just find two people who wanted to die, copy the tape for them, destroy the original [like the main character did] and then destroy the copy after they'd watched it? Mm, logic.)
So I guess if you know any "horror" films that wouldn't leave me disgusted, petrified, or paranoid afterward, I guess feel free to recommend them.
Hmm, this is not good, the arm I fell on this morning is starting to hurt, and it's sort of where I broke it back in 1996. Auugh.
Fuck, and I don't have any Tylenol.
