People Are Revealing The Movie That Traumatized Them So Badly As A Kid That They’re Still Afraid Of It

“I never watched the full video in The Ring. When I watch the film, at that one part, I’ll still close my eyes when the video is running. My phone won’t ring mfers.”

“Holy hell, you can’t imagine how good The Ring’s marketing was back in the day. Remember: searching for something on the internet wasn’t as useful or even possible.

It’s the middle of the night, and you’re watching some random show.

Goes to commercial break.

And then you see The Ring.

The early ads for this movie would just show the entire The Ring’s video as its own commercial, with no context at all.

It was extremely jarring and frankly frightening, and having no explanation about what you just watched… I remember being absolutely fascinated by it. I would stay up late and try to guess what channels/shows played this ad.”
