Watching Ringu

A video (in quicktime) shows a group of Japanese girls (members of the pop group Morning Musume) watching a video of the horror movie Ringu. There's a lot of shrieking, so definitely turn your speakers down. But wait until the end for the prank that's played on them. The video can also be found on other sites in wmv format.

Too good, too good.

I'd hate to be the guy who mops the floor in the studio THAT night, though...

Let me guess - after you watch the car go around a corner, a zombie's head flops into view? A black-and-white face with cut-out eyes? A cat, staring into our souls? Terence Trent D'Arby?

Ringo may not be the best drummer, but he's not THAT scary

Haha..related story...when The Ring (American version) came out in theaters, my friend and her roommate saw it on opening night. Their other roommate saw it a few weeks later. So my friend and the other one waited for the third girl to come home; when they saw her car pull up in the parking lot, they turned off the breakers in their apartment and hid in one of the bedrooms. The unsuspecting girl came in to the apartment and tried to turn the lights on in vain. When they heard her call out to them, my friend puleld out her cell phone and called the third girl's. The girl answered with a shaky "hello", when my friend whispered "Seven days!"

Needless to say the girl screamed her head off, and when my friend and the other girl came out of the bedroom laughing, got their asses chewed out and weren't spoken to for weeks 😊

Not quite as funny or elaborate as the one in this video, but sadistically funny all the same 😊

Way back in the day when Blair Witch first came out I went the first week with some of my highschool friends and we got there early so we could get tickets before it sold out, and after we got out tickets we were waiting outside because the pervious showing was still going on. We saw some kids pull up in a car and put a twig-effigy on a friends car. But then the pranksters' car started overheating and billowing smoke. 😊
That was a pretty pointless story. I guess it's time for me to go to bed.

twig-effigy might be a cool name for a band

i think there should more security at the apartments and it should be very serious issue and even before buying any apartment i just look out the surroundings and its security.
