"The Ring 2" Movie

Yesterday I saw the movie “The Ring 2”, which starred: Naomi Watts, Simon Baker, David Dorfman, Emily VanCamp and Sissy Spacek.

The movie story involved the following: “It's been six months since journalist Rachel Keller (Naomi Watts) and her ashen-faced, sunken-eyed son Aidan (David Dorfman) outsmarted the sinister Samara and escaped that darn cursed tape. Or have they? They've moved to a new town and are trying to get on with their lives. Then Rachel discovers evidence at a local crime scene, including an unmarked videotape, which makes her fear it might not be over. Aidan suddenly starts behaving even more strangely, scratching at walls, saying things like, ''She can't hear us when we sleep,'' as his temperature drops dangerously below normal. He even has detrimental effects on the fauna in the area. Hmmm. It indeed seems like Samara isn't quite done putting the pretty blonde and her son, who looks nothing like her, through the ringer. Rachel must now try to save Aidan's life for the second time--and finally send that demented well dweller back where she belongs.”

I give this movie a “C+”, and it is the worth of an admission ticket, a small popcorn and a small soft drink. The movie was scary, but it was very predictable. Sissy Spacek could not save the movie.
