MENTIONS & AWARDS


 
the ringworld has been used as a reference for:

DreamWorks, BBCi, the Internet Movie Database and websites across the globe. It is translation / content provider for the German DVD release of the Ring series, and has been a resource for classes at McNair Academic High School (New Jersey) and the School Of Audio Engineering (London). I am also proud to have contributed to two separate guides to the Ring series, Denis Meikle's The Ring Companion and Julio Ángel Olivares' Spanish-language The Ring: Una Mirada Al Abismo ("The Ring: A Look Into the Abyss").

 
appearances and mentions:

PRINT - Fangoria, Cemetery Dance, Charleston City Paper, Valley Morning Star, Newtype USA, Video Watchdog, Vector, BONZO (Japanese film magazine).

ONLINE - Wireless Flash news   Toronto Star   Asian Fortune   Necropsy   Flak Magazine Philippine Daily Inquirer  etc.

Fade In magazine selected the ringworld as one of the 100 coolest film sites of 2004.
 

The Feb. 2003 issue of Video Watchdog featured a whopping 13-page article covering all the films in the Ring series, including both Korean and American remakes. Author Richard Harland Smith was kind enough to ask for my assistance during the writing process, the result being one of the most complete and accurate Ring articles seen to date.

"The article is worth the price alone." - creature-corner.com


On May 27th, 2004, the U.K. horror magazine SFX released a "Collector's Edition Horror Special" that happened to include a section on Japanese horror cinema. Within these pages was not just an interview with Ring director Nakata Hideo, but also a mini-history of J-horror as a whole. The folks at SFX referred to the ringworld by name, calling it "an exhaustively researched and in-depth guide to the Ringu phenomenon." Many thanks to SFX for this kind and unexpected mention.
