Part of the problem (in my humble opinion) is that Nakata doesn't make pure horror films. Dark Water holds a fine balance between horror and melodrama, and works all the better for it. Nakata's scenes of family drama enhance the horror scenes, where as Gore Verbinski's scenes of drama and familial interaction were just short of embarrassing.

How J-Horror could benifit from being made in Hollywood is quiet silly, as then it wouldn?t be J-Horror anymore. Verbinski?s ?The Ring? clearly demonstrated how different the two styles are, but those who?ve seen Nakata?s ?The Ring 2? who honestly never dare to say something like that. If anything, ?The Ring 2? shows how horrible primitive Hollywood horror is versus J-Horror.
