  • ​Reviews of the Ring Series the Ring Series, Also Known As “Ringu
    Reviews of The Ring Series ​ The Ring series, also known as “Ringu” or just “Ring”, is considered the founding factor in the west’s interest in Japanese horror and helped bridge the gap between international films. Based on a series of novels written by Koji Suzuki, the films revolve around a cursed videotape that kills anyone who watches it after seven days. Though the first book is a horror­mystery, its two sequels Spiral and Loop are a medical mystery and a science fiction mystery respectively, all having intriguing storylines and plot twists that explore the sinister virus that originates from the videotape rather than a haunting curse. The Ring series has spawned a TV movie, two TV series, a fantastic Japanese film series, a crumby Korean film, and a respectible American movies too. And we’re gonna review all of them in this mega­review. The franchise reflects a lot of modern fears in society – a fear of technology, urban legends, deadly illnesses (the AIDS scare in the 1980s and 1990s), unexpected pregnancy (as seen in Spiral), and the more traditional scares of evil and monsters. The main antagonist, Sadako Yamamura, takes a lot of inspiration from Japanese mythology and traditions. She is an “onryō”, or a vengeful female spirit, sporting the traditional long stringy hair and wears a white dress. Her origin is based on several folktales, most notably about a woman who is chucked down a well, where she dies and rises as a ghost. Obviously, there will be spoilers for the books and films throughout these mini­reviews, so be weary.

Cyrill and Method Trnava Abstract The study deals with the genre of horror, outlining it and describing the dominant features and typological variations. It provides a brief overview of the development process in the realm of literature, film and computer games and outlines its appearance in other fields of culture and art. It characterises the readers and viewers of horror works and their motives for seeking the genre. The thesis wants to introduce the genre, its representants in Slovak and Czech literature. Key words: genre, subgenre, horror, dread, short story, novel, film, writer, director, game, violence, blood, danger, mystical, supernatural phenomenon, ghost, monster, vampire, zombie, werewolf, murderer. 1. Introduction The oldest and strongest human emotion is fear. It is embedded in people since time began. It was fear that initiated the establishment of faith and religion. It was the fear of unknown and mysterious phenomena, which people could not explain otherwise than via impersonating a high power, which decides their fates.
