Description: The Japanese horror classic that started it all! Introducing Arrow Films' UHD 4K Limited Edition release for 1998's Ringu (aka The Ring), the Japanese horror film that started it all, restored from the original negative in glorious 4K and supplemented by a wealth of bonus materials!In 1998, director Hideo Nakata (Dark Water) unleashed a chilling tale of technological terror on unsuspecting audiences, which redefined the horror genre, launched the J-horror boom in the West and introduced a generation of moviegoers to a creepy, dark-haired girl called Sadako.The film's success spawned a slew of remakes, reimaginations and imitators, but none could quite boast the power of Nakata's original masterpiece, which melded traditional Japanese folklore with contemporary anxieties about the spread of technology.A group of teenage friends are found dead, their bodies grotesquely contorted, their faces twisted in terror. Reiko (Nanako Matsushima, When Marnie Was There), a journalist and the aunt of one of the victims, sets out to investigate the shocking phenomenon, and in the process uncovers a creepy urban legend about a supposedly cursed videotape, the contents of which causes anyone who views it to die within a week - unless they can persuade someone else to watch it, and, in so doing, pass on the curse100% Brand New and Factory SealedPacked with extra CARE with USPS First Class serviceDiscount/combined shipping if multiple items are ordered =)Photos in gallery is a sample of our actual in-stock itemShips from Las Vegas, USALimited Edition Features:Limited edition packaging featuring two artwork optionsDouble-sided fold-out poster Illustrated collector's booklet featuring writing on the film by Violet Lucca and Alexandra Heller-NicholasFeatures: Brand new, exclusive 4K restoration from the original camera negative by Arrow Films 4K (2160p)UHD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible)Lossless Japanese DTS-HD master audio5.1 and PCM 2.0 soundtracksOptional English subtitlesAudio commentary by film historian David KalatThe Ringu Legacy - a series of interviews from critics and filmmakers on their memories of the Ringu series and its enduring legacyA Vicious Circle - a video interview with author and critic Kat Ellinger on the career of Hideo NakataCircumnavigating Ringu - a video essay by author and critic Alexandra Heller-Nicholas on the evolution of the Ringu seriesSpooks, Sighs and Videotape - a video essay by critic Jasper Sharp on the J-horror phenomenonSadako's videoTheatrical trailersTechnical Specs:Production Year: 1998Running Time: 95Number of Discs: 1Language: JapaneseSubtitles: English SDHAspect Ratio: 1.85:1- The Goodie Emporium Return policy: If New/Factory Sealed items have been opened, returns will not be accepted.
