Good things may come in small packages, but bad things come in all shapes and sizes, from the mirror in 'Oculus' to the videotape in the 'Ring' movies ('Rings,' pictured, opens February 3). One look at these cursed objects and you might hope the next gift you get includes the receipt.

Watch the tape, get a phone call, die seven days later. Rachel Keller (Naomi Watts) is as thankful as the rest of us that no one uses videotapes anymore.

A supernatural force inside a family's mirror causes murder, suicide and mayhem. Two siblings, one of them recently released from a mental institution, must figure out how to stop the evil, 300-year-old reflecting device before it's too late.

This necklace might look nice, but if you let it touch your skin, you’ll be screaming your head off like a crazy person. That's what happens to poor Gryffindor student Katie Bell (Georgina Leonidas).

Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) shrewdly closes his eyes when the Ark of the Covenant is opened. He knows that exploiting its powers isn’t worth losing your head over.

If you ever come across this ring in the lost and found box, don't try it on. Sure, turning invisible has its advantages. But it can drive even a sweet little Hobbit like Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood) to the brink of despair.

If you have a painting of 16th century madman Vigo the Carpathian hanging in your house, who you gonna call?

Trust us on this one: you don’t want to solve this puzzle box. Doing so will open up a portal to the realm of the Cenobites. And the Cenobites, led by Pinhead (Doug Bradley), are not pleasant people.
