Earlier this week, we saw Samara (played by Bonnie Morgan) scare unsuspecting shoppers at an electronics store in a hilarious prank video ahead of Paramount Pictures' February 3rd release of Rings, and now the cursed girl (this time played by Natasha King) has stowed away in a luggage bag to give the hosts of NBC's Today show a shock!

From Today: "Poor Natalie Morales seems to be a favorite foil for pranks on TODAY, and on Thursday it happened again. Natalie thought she was participating in a segment about the wacky things people pack in their suitcases – until the creepy girl from the horror movie “Rings” unexpectedly emerged from one!"

Rings synopsis: "A new chapter in the beloved RING horror franchise. A young woman becomes worried about her boyfriend when he explores a dark subculture surrounding a mysterious videotape said to kill the watcher seven days after he has viewed it. She sacrifices herself to save her boyfriend and in doing so makes a horrifying discovery: there is a “movie within the movie” that no one has ever seen before…"

Directed by F. Javier Gutiérrez, Rings stars Matilda Lutz, Alex Roe, Johnny Galecki, Aimee Teegarden, Bonnie Morgan. Paramount Pictures will release Rings in theaters on February 3rd. Stay tuned to Daily Dead for more coverage of Rings ahead of its release.
