Summary:

"Why was the television destroyed?"

In this sequel to Ring (1998), Mai Takano is trying to learn more about the death of her boyfriend, Ryuji.

She soon hears stories about a videotape haunted by the spirit of a girl named Sadako, who died many years earlier. Supposedly, anyone watching the tape will die of fright exactly one week later.

After some investigating, she learns that Ryuji's son, Youichi, is developing the same psychic powers that Sadako had when she was alive.

Mai must now find some way to keep Yuuichi and herself from becoming Sadako's next victims.

Inspired by Hideo Nakata's Ring film screenplay.
