The synopsis: A journalist named Rachel (Naomi Watts) investigates an urban legend surrounding a video tape that seemingly causes the death of anyone who watches it exactly seven days later.
The twist: After Rachel finally figures out the cause of the murders (a vengeful ghost with an aversion to dry shampoo named Samara), she tracks down her body, which is lying submerged at the bottom of a well. She brings Samara's body out to give her a proper burial thinking that doing so will put her spirit at peace. Unfortunately it just frees Samara's spirit to kill whomever she wants, wherever she wants (including Rachel's baby daddy, Noah). Fun!
