Koji Suzuki, author whose works inspired Gore Verbinski's 2002 American remake The Ring, George Iida's 1998 Spiral, and Hideo Nakata's 2002 Dark Water, has died.

Fuck off with those feckless American remakes. Watch the Japanese original

Watch both.

I prefer the Dark Water remake but the Japanese originals otherwise. I still enjoy all versions.

Kind of weird to specify the American remake of the Japanese original movie, and kind of weird to say “inspired” rather than “based on.”

I really liked the book series.
