I'm in agreement with all of that. The Ring is one of the few movies I truly consider a 'horror' flick (unlike the Freddy/Jason/cheap zombie/Wrong Turn nonsense that new 'horror' movies offer).
And I know exactly what you mean about the fear sinking in later on. The Ring was one of the few movies that managed to spook the living daylights out of me, to the point I had trouble sleeping that night. :ph34r:
There was another film I thought was quite good, but I can't remember the title and I can't seem to find it by browsing IMDB. It involved a guy who (seemingly) goes psychotic and keeps this surreal diary about how the 'shadows' had marked him and were going to come back and get him, then after he disappears three friends of his find his diary and note that they're 'marked' as well... Yeah, that description could be for just about any horror flick, but the one I'm thinking of was really done well. :angry:
