• Joji Iida’s “Spiral” and Hideo Nakata’s “The Ring” were released in Japanese theaters simultaneously. The film company's management hoped this would increase box office revenue. Some actors appeared in both films, and the same people worked on both (although they had different directors and screenwriters), but “The Ring” became an incredibly successful project, while “Spiral” did not.
