The Ring (2002)

Question: I know that the images in the tape represent things that happened to or around Samara, but what is the point of the nail going through someone's finger? I know they can't show every second of Samara's life so we might not see a connection, but that part of the tape really grossed me out and so I want to know if someone knows why it was put there, or was it just the gross-out factor?

Chosen answer: Samara broke her finger nail clawing at the walls of the well... I guess that's why it's on the tape also.
