The Ring (2002)

from The Conner & Smith Show · host Stephen Smith

Day 24 – Episode 174: The Ring (2002)On Day 24 of The Conner & Smith Show’s 31 Days of Halloween, Ryan and I revisit Gore Verbinski’s The Ring (2002) — the film that defined early 2000s horror and made us all afraid of our TVs. We dive into how influential this American remake of Ringu truly was, from its haunting aesthetic to its eerie use of analog technology. Naomi Watts delivers a powerhouse performance as Rachel Keller, grounding the supernatural mystery in raw emotion and fear. We also try to wrap our heads around how exactly Samara manages to cross over through VHS tapes and landlines — a mystery that still chills us decades later.Support The Conner & Smith Show on Patreon here:👉 https://www.patreon.com/ConnerandSmith?utm_campaign=creatorshare_fan
