American horror got much needed infusion of creepiness with The Ring, a remake of the Japanese film Ringu. Despite the legacy of authors like H.P. Lovecraft, American horror movies always seem to avoid soul-cringing, subtle horror in favor of the easy gross out or Monster-of-the-Week gorefest.

While these can be good, more often than not it's just another excuse to spill some fact blood and rack up an ever-more ghoulish body count. The Ring, and the Japanese imports that followed it, skews more cerebral, trying to crawl under your skin and rattle you from the inside, rather than just throwing another ghoul onto the big screen.

Complementing the movie's exceedingly creepy on-screen visuals was that staple of horror movies, the soundtrack. While none of its tracks stood out in the same way as Psycho, Jaws or Halloween, the music fit the mood well. Fans of the movie and its sound can re-immerse themselves in it with The Ring/The Ring 2 soundtrack, released by Decca Records.
