You might appreciate my less-serious anecdote dealing with the American remake of The Ring.

It was my date's brilliant idea to go to a late-night showing. The movie... kind of hooked in deep on me just watching it in the theatre. I ended up leaving his place late.

My route home passed a horse farm, so *that* was fun right there. Just horses. In the dark. Just to set the mood.

I get home, one of my parents is still up finishing some work on the computer. They say goodnight, turn to leave the room as I'm about to settle in for a few things before bed myself. I glance at the computer.

Computer goes black.

Computer flashes white static.

Computer flashes the grainy image of a well.

I have an instant panic attack, hunkering down into a ball and - I can't even scream, I'm exhaling the words out breathlessly - "TURN IT OFF TURN IT OFF TURN IT OFF!"

My family member is just staring at me.

It was a screensaver.

OH GOD. THAT WOULD BE HORRIFYING.

The closest I've ever gotten to that was a TV turning on on its own once. But that was in the middle of the day, in the middle of a crowded bandroom as we were all cleaning our instruments.

I used to have a screwed up old TV that wouldn't turn off sometimes unless you unplugged it.

Oh my god, I had a former roommate with an equally good Ring story!

So, she was snowed in alone in her dorm for the Christmas holidays. And she got the GENIUS IDEA to watch the Ring. Alone. In the dark, creepy basement. At night. Pretty much the entire dorm is deserted but her.

So she's watching it, the first ring video bit plays, there's the phone call--AND THE PHONE RINGS.

My friend goes and picks up the phone. "Hello?"

"SEVEN DAYS! No but really, have you watched the Ring yet?"

The friend calling had the best/worst timing ever.

I am so glad I don't have any The Ring stories. Plenty of friends do, but not me.

My mom and I watched it very deliberately in the middle of the day, and it still freaked me out for the next, oh, couple a years? But no convenient phone calls or other coincidences.
