Rachel Keller is a young journalist who's recently heard about a mysteriously cursed videotape, that seemed to lead to her nieces death within 7 days of her watching it. Puzzled, confused, and saddened by her tragic and sudden death, she begins to do some further investigation on this horrific video which involves her visiting the "Shelter Mountain Inn", the infamous place where her niece Katie and her friends first viewed this videotape. She herself watches the video, and sure enough the phone begins to ring.... "7 days". So now the clock is ticking and the days are going by, and Rachel has only 7 days to unravel the mystery of "The Ring". As many questions arise, and parts of this unraveled mystery begin to be revealed, there is only one question that remains.... will she make it in time, or will her 7 days be up before she can solve this puzzle?

Rachel Keller: No. We set her free. Aidan Keller: You helped her? Rachel Keller: Yeah. Aidan Keller: Why did you do that? Rachel Keller: What's wrong, honey?

Movie Trivia:
- To avoid being banned the original UK cinema version was cut to completely remove the knife fight.
-
The role of Rachel was first offered to Jennifer Connelly. The script was then offered to Gwyneth Paltrow, and then to Kate Beckinsale, and finally Naomi Watts.
-
Chris Cooper was supposed to be featured in a small role as a child murderer. Though his scenes were allegedly filmed and his name was included in early promotional materials (and on the film's official website) he's nowhere to be seen in the final theatrical cut.
-
Subliminal frames from the Ring video are inserted in the film. For example, the 'Ring' image can be glimpsed for a fraction of a second in the transition between the ferry/horse sequence and Rachel's car drive to Anna Morgan's farm on Moesko Island.
-
The other videos on the shelf where Rachel finds the Ring video are: Shattered (1991), Scent of a Woman (1992), Spontaneous Combustion (1990), Il mondo di Yor (1983), Sodom and Gomorrah (1962), The Looking Glass War (1969), Visions of a New World (1995) (V), Family Plot (1976), Steel Magnolias (1989), The Man from Snowy River (1982) and School Ties (1992).
