Analyzing the extraordinary trans-cultural popularity of the Ring phenomenon, inaugurated with the 1991 publication of Koji Suzuki's Ring, The Scary Screen embraces a wide variety of interpretive approaches. The contributors examine the full range of Ring-related cultural production, including novels, films, manga, and television specials, showing how the many adaptations in Japan, Korea, and the United States expose the anxieties triggered by the advent of new communications and media technologies.
