From a cultural standpoint, the freakiest element of the movie is “the tape.” The eerie black and white footage, the grainy distortion, the unsettling long shot of the well… One sees the tape played on-screen, and fully believes that it has the power to kill. What is it, exactly, that makes it so scary? Part of it is the way that it’s shot. By mixi...
Something else that adds to the creeping feeling of dread with the haunted tape is the bizarre lighting. The keen-eyed viewer will note that, for example, there is no reference point to the lighting during the mirror scene. Reiko points out in her investigation that a camera should be visible in the mirrors, but there is none. On top of that, there...
There’s a strange side effect from watching the tape. Any time anyone takes a picture of someone who watched the tape, they appear distorted in the Polaroid. This is one of the most chilling aspects of the film. It’s a simple visual storytelling resource, but a hugely effective one! Viewers get briefly blinded by the flash of a camera and the sound...
As awesome as the film is in visual terms, the splendid sound design simply can’t be ignored. Composer Kenji Kawaiadds a subtle score that blends, almost seamlessly, with the sound effects. Again, it adds to this uncanny, unnatural atmosphere present throughout the film. Of course, the ringing telephone is key to the narrative. Take the opening sce...
“To startle the audience, I think the sound is most effective,” cinematographer Junichiro Hayashi said. “[But,] on the other hand, images can scare them into not wanting to watch the screen.” Hayashi may very well be the master of J-horror. Not only is he the cinematographer for Ringu, but also Nakata’s film Dark Water (2002) and the techno-horror ...
Speaking of Sadako, there is something very, very creepy about this long-haired girl. The way her long, matted hair obscures her face adds mystery to her already disturbing visuals. And, once again, Sadako’s design weaponizes the uncanny to make her even more frightening to the viewer. One of the most iconic shots from Ringu is when Sadako’s single...
