The Ring

Advantages: casting
Disadvantages: none

...seen, however still very memorable. The plot consists of a journalist investigating a videotape with very disturbing images that may have killed four teenagers, now even through the cheesy plot of a killer video tape, it really drawed me in. The reason she begins to investigate, is one the teenagers that was killed was her niece, after hearing about the urban legend about this killer video tape that after 7 days of watching it you will die. Rachel ...
...the legend is true, she only has seven days to reverse the evil that is now after her, and after her son after he watches the tape. The plot was very different to other horror films, and normally I don’t enjoy horrors as I believe most of them have the same plot over and over again.

When science goes wrong

Advantages: Outstanding CG work
Disadvantages: Basic plot, not really a horror.
