Ring (1998)

A mysterious video has been linked to a number of deaths, and when an inquisitive journalist finds the tape and views it herself, she sets in motion a chain of events that puts her own life in danger.

In Ring, consciousness is carried by the dead — a plane of “cursed media”. The story fights on E8/E9 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing fear, mortality, technology, culture.
