This week for the set of Movie Talk On Sunday questions we cast our eyes over the Ring/Ringu series of films and the myriad of spin-offs and remakes.
Join us on Sunday 16th October on Twitter at 8pm as we spend 90 mins or so sharing our opinions on the answers to the following questions..
Q1: What was your first introduction to The Ring franchise? Was it the original, the novel, the TV movie (Kanzenban), or was it the US remake? #MTOS
Q2: How big a fan are you of the franchise, and how many of the myriad of sequels or remakes have you seen? #MTOS

Q4: What is it that makes The Ring (and other modern J-Horror) stand out in your opinion? What do they bring to the horror genre? #MTOS
