totally confused! it was a pretty good movie, but it had a real cop-out ending. the ending leaves to many loose ends.

I thought it was a good ending.  IT was an attempt to scare the audience.

SPOILER ALERT - DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE MOVIE
She was going to boardcast it.  The requriement was to spread the message.  To me this would require her not only to make a copy of the tape but to show someone else the tape, which she did twice.

It is also a remake of a Japanese film called Ringu.  Haven't seen either but most people on the avs forums say Ringu is the better movie. Not my type of flick.

I just couldn't sit through the original. It just bored me. Even with subtitles, which I don't mind at all.

Edit - fun facts

This story was even made into a TV drama. In Japan, the TV dramas are usually 10-12 1-hour episodes that have a definate start, middle and ending. Kind of like a mini-series here. Only really, really popular ones ever get a sequel.

there's this video tape. and if you watch it, 7 days later you will die.  so, this MILF watches it and spends the next 90 minutes trying to understand the tapes origin and avoid the death sentence.  it's creepy, and I love creepy movies.

***SPOILER*******


As for the movie, she didnt die because she had made a copy and showed someone else. Thats why she had her son in there at the end making a copy. Pretty simple.

NOW..as for Naomi Watts. Check out Mulholland Drive. She's in it with another hot chick with some lesbian action. After you've watched it thru and you feel like you've just been slapped upside the head with a stupid stick because you can't figure it out, read and explanation of it online somewhere. Its a badass movie.

Mulholland Drive is a great movie.  Your assessment of it was right on as well.  I watched it twice and sort of had it figured out.  Checked a bunch of websites to fill in some of the stuff I missed.  Plus TWO lesbian scenes.

MILF? You would think that a female member of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front would at least be wearing a head scarf or something?
