Samara possesses the power of nensha like Sadako, capable of burning

onto surfaces and into the minds of others. Unlike Sadako, Samara psychically disfigures her victims' faces before they finally die of a heart attack. Samara's history is covered through the American films.

The Ring is one of the best 2000s horror movies because of Samara, a well-crafted villain who is unforgettable because of her creepy nature and long black hair. She will forever be associated with the moment when she comes out of the TV near the end of the movie.
