  • "The popular novel The Ring has seen the lion's share of publicity, but that's not where the story ends. In this adaptation of Suzuki's next novel Spiral (Rasen in Japanese), the legend of Sadako's evil takes a scientific turn, as Ryuji Takayama's old college friend, Mitsuo Ando, must decipher a mysterious code while investigating this strange virus that kills people after watching a video tape. Disbelief gives way to fear. Logic bends to survival. And human evolution changes drastically. What Sadako plans is not simply horror, but something much, much deeper."@en
  • "In the thrilling sequel to Ringu, Rasen starts off with an autopsy that reveals a piece of paper with a string of numbers in a victim's stomach. After he finds the cryptic note, Dr. Andou does some investigating and soon learns of a mysterious videotape, haunted by the spirit of a murdered woman."
  • "Learning about a series of mysterious deaths caused by an unknown virus, Ando, a physician, faces the choice of finding a cure for the virus or using the information he has gathered to help bring his drowned son back from the dead."
  • "The story we thought we knew in Ring is broken down and twisted into a new reality. Ando, a medical doctor haunted by dreams of his drowned son, faces a choice at the end of Spiral more sinister than Asakawa's in Ring."@en
