@@Kokoro252 yess you’re right. Bonnie Morgan played Samara in the 2017 movie. She also played the Samara stunt double in Ring 2 in the infamous well scene. Despite the movie being not so great, I feel like Bonnie does a terrific job as Samara. I hope we see more of her as Samara in the future!

The rebirth aspect was touched upon in the second movie when she was trying to take over the boys body, they just misunderstood what her intentions were and went with the " she just wants a mommy" aspect instead. I personally think the entire series was leading up to the rebirth, if you think about it. The curse makes people spread the video because she is searching for someone or something , she is looking for the perfect host body, the ones that are not perfect gets killed , her idea of perfect is the one who is smart enough to put all the pieces of the puzzle together and find her body to burn it. So if you look at it from start to finish it all connects

[@ft.shraddha2154]

The explanation here clears the way off. Confirmed certain theories of mine. Thank you😊

[@daoust26]

And the father said in rings that everyone who’s tried failed and never fully understands what it means

[@backtothestart02]

I hate when sequels ignore when happened in the previous movie(s). They should've done something like this BEFORE implying she was cut off from the real world for good at the end of the second one.

[@janfranceldelacerna4834]

i think it's a rebootcause they didn't explain how a vhs tape becomes a video in an email

[@tmmaps9193]

Maybe instead of being cut off completely, Samara's spiritual link between only Rachel and Aiden had been cut off. During the events of the ring 2, there was a group of people copying the tape and sharing their experiences online which eventually grew into a huge cult experiment so Samara still thrives on other victims, just not Rachel or Aiden.

[@treacherouscheese6806]

+catherina alatas bot huh

[@brennicolas3093]

It's not exactly a retcon of The Ring Two, the backstories do line up because if you pay attention they do not state that Evelyn gave birth down under the church or died or anything. I know it's stated Samara was found abandoned as a child but my theory is Rachel was a reporter in the first movie and she did not know who Samara's birth parents were so she published a story with all the backstory we learned in the first movie where as her searching for Samara's birth mother was not for a story it was to save her son and she was no longer a reporter so this information would not have been published and been public knowledge. Because if you remember Rachel had to do quite a bit of digging to uncover her identity. This movie just explains where Evelyn came from. She obviously escaped and was found by nuns who took her to the woman's shelter. As for her being trapped in the well, we'll all I can say is, Michael, Freddy, Jason always come back with no explanation.. hey, it's a horror movie.

[@hntr5495]

Maybe Because someone found the video and freed her with watching the video

[@bamzilla964]

Normally I love the "doesn't want closure and is just plain evil" ending with horror movie antagonists, but with Samara I actually would've preferred her getting closure. Especially considering how sad her backstory is.

[@lessismore8533]

Yes thank you! I used to be creeped out beyond reason but now I’m actually a huge Samara fan and I’d rather her demon said be defeated once and for all but overall she get closure and then everyone wins. Even on the movie “lights out” the female villian is defeated in the end

[@lessismore8533]

@Spookylilgirl “they will only want to cause pain” but you speak about them as if they’re real ppl. The writer can do whatever they want with characters. As much as I love Samara as a vengeance demon, I’d rather have that split personality like they did with her Japanese version named Sadako. On one of the Ringu sequels, She’s split into a good and evil twin. Shame the US version had to change things.

[@lessismore8533]

Took the words right otta my mouth man. I love Samara

[@tayloranderson7547]

Enough considering how said her backstory is.

in the ring 2 the mother of samara is the woman in the mental hospital. and now they say she's the one who's been locked ! im really confused now

She may have been locked up before she got put in the ward. I think this takes place before 2

Well, at least they could have tried to let the "new" Evelyn look a bit more like the "old" one.... black hair or something. Would have helped

Maybe she somehow escaped at 8 months and ended up at that place where the nuns were at. Then she was put in the mental hospital after she tried to kill the child.

[@blacknoodles1103]

she was locked up there and got captured by the priest (he's a pedo) and made her pregnant she then left when the baby was born and was told that the baby was evil etc.

[@hisyamamirudiin26]

You mean death note? But the rule of death note is you must wrote the name of the person and same time must know what the person look like.if it just a name but you dont know what the person look like,the death note wont have a effect. The only way you can kill samara is ifshe came to you,you wrote her name at front of her.

[@iamdoor2561]

So basically Samara lives in suffering also her name is possibly taken from the cycle on Hinduism known as Samsara, so explaining how she is suffering incarnate also how the ring represents the cycle of Samsara or Suffering because the ring brings suffering and death to their victims. But it's just a theory. Like

[@rockinonthemove]

After reading this, I’d be upset if this isn’t the reason why they named the character Samara. This is a good fucking theory

[@ogyoungboy21]

U special and stupid

[@strenuousspider9525]

So is samara just Sadako in English?. Because sadako is the original japanes films name. Kayako or something like that is the grudge girls name.

[@Slurpified]

When I watched this I knew from the start that Burke was the father of Samara!! It literally says the name of her father in a article that Rachel was reading in the first movie. You have to pause to read them. You all need to listen and observe more ahaha. You can see all this in the news articles Rachel looks through. Samara is a literal root of evil. Its where she derived from sadly to say. Thats pretty much it. She was basically possessed. The thing I love most about Gore Verbinski and his work is that there is so much to his films that they make you want to go on a research binge which I can understand why some people may be confused right now with the movies. They have so much art, detail, cinematography, brilliantly constructed stories, dialogues, etc. The lighting and the gloom in his films are gorgeous too not to mention. Especially in the first US ring movie. He did an amazing job at remastering the japanese one. I'd have to say it's my most favorite movie of all time. You can learn something new everytime you watch the same movies of his over and over again. He is a GODLY film director. This new one however was awful and humans have yet again ruined something good. If there's another sequel I'm gonna probably shoot myself. EDIT: I see a lot of asked questions about the tape. The tape is considered a "virus" to those who watch it. You die from being frightened at the sight of Samara she doesn't actually physically hurt you. The user was right in explaining ans theorizing this.

[@tahirelaslan8231]

Too long i didnt read it

[@junebug3354]

what if they weren't scared of her tho? Would the just not die and she would leave or something...I wonder

[@pahzplace7853]

Most folk usually don't pay attention, much less pay attention to detail. As they're often times just looking for someone to show them or give them or reveal to them x, y, z vs just using their own eyes and instincts. Most will believe that someone has to teach them how to do this, so instead of taking the initiative to do what they can on their own, they'll rely on trusting another/others and will readily receive whatever lie or half truth that comes their way. Although I haven't seen the movie, it's natural for anyone that either playing mind games with you, toying with you and or just feels that you're slow to throw whatever fact or truth in your face..........as this is egotistical behavior. The same goes for a movie that's suppose to be mysterious and questionable in nature. As the truth always has to be present/seen, but it's common for most to reject the obvious and think in ways that cater to what they want to see and believe. Most don't even understand true evil, as most just use words and attach them to whatever they choose to. As it was obvious that her fathers works resulted in producing a spawn that would not only kill him (even though he felt he was clever enough to avoid her getting to him) but would play a position in killing and using whomever she desired. I've witnessed parents who thought that they had it all figured out and believed that they could manipulate and control the very child/children that eventually was responsible for their demise. Life is interesting tho, as most movies and stories are told from what people know first hand, heard or have experienced themselves.

[@pahzplace7853]

which is why I believe that she was able to use that girl to rebirth herself. Instead of her just seeing her for who she was, (as obviously whatever she thought she knew wasn't factual) she chose to think, "oh, I'm going to save her!".........maybe she wanted to be a hero, not realizing that her ignorance (or maybe arrogance)would cost her her life and others..............by catering to Samara's shenanigans. I'm not too sure with what's the big deal about wanting to be a hero/have a hero etc. as it's all catering to and placating to ones ego. There's zero depth or value to it, as a hero (one who has served someones life in a profound way) is humble in nature, and really doesn't desire a title to define their works

[@deanta09]

the ring is also my favourite movie. That’s why I didnt like rings. Rings seems a 2017 remake.

[@Chronicpatchkids]

The airplane scene looks so ridiculous. I can't quite put my finger on why though.

[@TheBluBrawler]

Superhero Fan I got a final destination vibe from it, silly coz she made loads of people watch the video from the headrests by herself so why does she need people to share the vhs etc

[@angrypandaman0]

I'd like them to delve into some of the "what ifs" that a lot of people have for when Samara comes out of the TV. I see people say things like, "What if you just put the TV over the edge of the roof and Samara falls to her death?" Personally I'd like to see what would happen if you actually tried to fight her. Like, the military becomes aware of the situation and prepares a whole firing squad for her once she comes out lol.

[@jk-im3nu]

She’ll probably kill them all in a heartbeat and turn their faces all ugly 😭

[@Onyxolotl]

Always enjoy binging foundflix, even videos ive seen before.

[@Centrioless]

I recall from the original movie that: some "special" humans (in the ring story) have some kind of power, that can channel their hatred/feelings into an object and cause it to animate differently (ie: Samara and the video). Samara and Yoichi Asakawa (the son of the MC) were some of those special humans. The investigators then used Yoichi's power to break the curse between samara and her victims.

[@kitbina1925]

Great review I thought the film was a reboot of ring the first movie.

[@shroomie_g7]

Who else got an ad for this movie when they clicked on the video?

[@pikaglobal8263]

Unpoppable Balloon me it buffered when it was 1 second to skip

[@capsortee]

ok hear me out, what if 2 guys decide to become the guardians of the tape. so the first guy watches the tape and waits till the 6th day where he makes a new copy and gives it to the other guy, who ten waits another 6 days before repeating the process. So in essence, would that stop the curse?

[@j.j.sparks8359]

I think the tape knows how many times the same person watches it.

[@-_Axeljica20_-]

You do know you have to Make a COPY of the film before transferring the curse so that would make it so that a bunch of cursed tapes pile up buuuuuut there could be a third guy smashing them and setting the extra tapes on fire

[@parkjihoon394]

cap sortee I though about the same thing, just two people bouncing it back and forth. They could even go about their lives normally just with the occasional annoying omen

If the video reaches the internet, and I reupload it, does that count as passing the curse and then make me immune? What if I put an annotation on it saying to please share?

Preston Poland, ummm maybe? Well if you could do it before 7 days was up, but, Samara is probably more powerful now because she has a more physical body. Soooo I don’t know?

Can you explain the ending of the Shining???

[@DennisY96]

[@kylemagaro231]

For all of the explanations you need to be somewhat familiar with other King work. Like the kid has the same powers as the kids from It and Pennywise is kind of the same type of entity as the hotel. It gets convoluted, but it's relatively straight forward.

[@ogyoungboy21]

Hell no

[@wilhelmu8675]

@@DennisY96 you clearly have not watched the movie. That's not the ending, it ends with a picture.

[@brennicolas3093]

It's not exactly a retcon of The Ring Two, the backstories do line up because if you pay attention they do not state that Evelyn gave birth down under the church or died or anything. I know it's stated Samara was found abandoned as a child but my theory is Rachel was a reporter in the first movie and she did not know who Samara's birth parents were so she published a story with all the backstory we learned in the first movie where as her searching for Samara's birth mother was not for a story it was to save her son and she was no longer a reporter so this information would not have been published and been public knowledge. Because if you remember Rachel had to do quite a bit of digging to uncover her identity. This movie just explains where Evelyn came from. She obviously escaped and was found by nuns who took her to the woman's shelter.

They should have just sent Samara to Professor Xaviers school for the "gifted".

[@pahzplace7853]

lmfaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Great insight! lolololololololololololololololololol. A scene where she rejects them and tells them that she is for dolo and has no interest in being apart of their team would have made everyone go OUCH! oooooooooooooooo K! lolol If she knows how to adjust as well as evolves in ways that gives her access to do the unthinkable, I'm sure that she would know that whomever suggesting or trying to get her to join whatever team is just trying to manipulate her thinking and could give a rats ass about her, but just wants to use and control who she is.

[@lamar5927]

*"Did someone call me?"*

[@dafnesaldana407]

I think that if they do decide to open an entire new "saga" on Samara then they have to somehow involve the first 2 Ring movies, regardless on how advanced technology has gotten on this new movie, they can't mess with the original, add on's are okay, but they got to do a really mind blowing "saga/seasons" or whatever.. (overall, I'm not disappointed with this new Rings movie, they did a good job).

[@jkk8449]

Tbh, if I was Rachel (the woman who Samara wanted to be adopted by), I'd just accept it. The circumstances around her birth are tragic, and I feel that if she was given a proper childhood and being raised in a supportive and loving environment, Samara would be a completely different person. Idk, I was abused as a kid and kind of empathise with her situation

[@theR1ch]

I vaguely remember reading something about American hauntings involve trying to appease/fight the spirit. Japanese hauntings are, as they said, different. There is nothing that can be done to help the spirit. You're just straight cursed to death and that hits a little harder, I think, knowing you're powerless against this. Onryo/Yurei are creepy as hell.

[@sharonunfiltered]

I loved the books, Japanese trilogy, various other versions and the USA interpretations! Just a really fascinating concept and I'd like to see a fourth installment following her rebirth, just imagine it 🤣

[@Va1karius]

Could this in fact be a remake of the American version? I thought this was descent for a PG-13 film. And yes, it does open doors for a Rings 2. I never put the bell and the eclipse symbol together till it was revealed near the end. Vincent did a good job. Johnny too. Shame Johnny died in a Final Destination-esque style.

Samara kills her victims the same way Sadako does, by staring at them with one single eye. This induces a heart attack. Sadako also killed her victims by snapping their limbs, which would’ve been cool to see in the Ring series.
