Experience the Terror of ‘The Ring’ For Yourself in VR
Man, VR really is becoming a huge thing. Not just something for big industries anymore, smaller niche companies and filmmakers are creating their own virtual reality experiences that everyone is able to experience in some way, shape, or form.
Today, filmmaker Jeremy Sciarappa has created his own little take on The Ring, specifically the part where Samara/Sadako rises from the well on the TV, goes through the screen, and begins teleporting all over the place before getting right in your face.
What I love about this experience is that I can experience it on my laptop by clicking and dragging in the video window OR I can open the video on my phone and simply move the phone around to focus on what I want to see. The technology is so cool and I can’t even imagine where it’ll be in 3-4 years!

A creature wreaks havoc upon a community in Hope, from writer-director Na Hong-jin (The Wailing), and the new poster gives a closer look at the snarling beast.
The Korean monster movie will be released in theaters in the United States by NEON on September 9.
Check out the new poster below.
Set in the remote South Korean village of Hope Harbor, police chief Bum-seok and officer Sung-ae are called to find a mysterious creature that has wreaked havoc on the village.
In the nearby forest, a coterie of hunters, including Sung- ki, set out to track the beast and find themselves hunted instead. But all is not as it seems, and perceptions can be misleading.
What begins as ignorance plants the seed of disaster, escalating through human conflict into a tragedy of cosmic proportions.
Hwang Jung-min (The Wailing), Zo In-sung (“Moving”), Hoyeon (“Squid Game”), Taylor Russell (Bones and All), Cameron Britton (“The Umbrella Academy”), Alicia Vikander (Ex Machina), and Michael Fassbender (Prometheus) star in Hope.
Hope had its World Premiere at the Cannes Film Festival back in May. The festival’s director, Thierry Fremaux, previously teased that Hope “constantly changes genres” to capture a story of “no part of history that’s ever been told before.”
