Seattle is an interesting place. It’s been known as the Emerald City for so long that many people have forgotten jut how it acquired this nickname. The moniker is taken from the fact that Seattle is surrounded by greenery throughout the year. If you wonder how that’s possible you might not be from the Pacific Northwest, where rain is plentiful and the people are a little different because of it. In all seriousness though Seattle is a great place and is showcased in several movies in a way that tends to show off its beauty and its complexity.

1. The Ring
Welcome to horror movie 101. If a mysterious tape that has no label, no point of origin, and no earthly business being on your shelf happens to show up, what should you do? Watch it of course and unleash the unholy evil that is bound within it.

Seattle has been seen as one of the greatest cities in the northwest and is one of the more interesting places to visit.
