It sounded like another urban legend-a videotape filled with nightmarish images, leading to a phone call foretelling the viewer’s death in exactly 7 days. Newspaper reporter Rachel Keller was naturally skeptical of the story, until 4 teenagers all met with mysterious deaths 1 week after watching just such a tape. Rachel tracks down the video, watches it and has just 7 days to unravel the mystery.
Here's my advice: if you hear about a video tape that kills people who watch it - DON'T watch it. Turn the VCR off and go outside. Then again, if the filmmakers followed that advice, audiences wouldn't have this thriller to laugh and scream at.
The cute young actress looks nothing like her creepy character in this year's hottest thriller, "The Ring."
