Michael Ledo This reminds me of the old Hitchcock stuff. Mary (Rachelle Lefevre) divorces Steve(Ed Quinn) and moves into an apartment. Steve is of questionable character. Mary gets calls from Rose (Lorna Raver) asking for Bobby. Rose claims she lives in the 1970's. At first she thinks a friend of Steve's is behind this. Her and Rose become semi-friends. Weird things start to happen. Whatever changes Rose makes to the pantry in the 1970's materializes in the present day. This really spokes out Mary. Steven violates his restraining order and Mary gets help from her French teacher. Upon doing some research she discovers a Rose really did live there. Is this supernatural or an elaborate hoax?The film hooks you from the first phone call. You can't wait for the phone to ring. Then at some point, you don't want the phone to ring. But it does... Excellent writing. Excellent film. Good intensity.Parental Guide: F-bomb,brief sex scene, no nudity
gamecelt This was an interesting movie and well worth a glass of wine and a box of chocolates next to a warm fire.Saying that it was one of those movies that tried to be clever but the twist did not quite work. You are left thinking to yourself, 'I see what the producer is trying to do but it flops a little. Too many gaps.' It would have been better if there was a clearer explanation as to the connection with the past and the present and how the two interrelated.However this is not rubbish by any means and its worth a bag of popcorn and an evening in.
teamcooper most of the Ratings are Fake! This movie sucks badly!! do not watch!!!! who gives me back 90 minutes of my precious life... OK, IMDb wants that i tell you more of this movie. OK, the acting is badly, i don't know if its dubbed or the actors are talking that badly. a old women calls an other lady and after 5 minutes the old lady knows that she is calling from the past. i still don't know how she was finding out but i don't want to watch this bull++ again. I was not frightened one time. why this is labelled as horror is the greatest mystery in this movie. i only write all this to save you some time. go fishing instead, you will be more frightened if you see a fish getting no oxygene.
bowmanblue I had very little expectations from this film. It didn't look like it had much of a budget and no actors that I'd heard of (okay, so I sort of recognised the main woman from Twilight, but that was about it). However, in this case, less is slightly more (or at least slightly more than the average dross that infests modern horror films).I wouldn't call The Caller a horror, more of a supernatural thriller. It's about a single woman (aren't they all?) who gets some mysterious phone calls. Nothing too out of the ordinary, but it presents a pretty creepy premise which finds her trapped in a spiralling cycle of torture and paranoia from a very nasty supernatural adversary.The Caller is a 'slow burner.' This is why it's probably not for everyone. Nothing too out of the ordinary happens in the first half and I can see a lot of people giving up before it really gets going. However, the second act cranks it up a gear and the torment really begins. There are no major scares or gore to speak of; it's more a case of inescapable mental torture.If you can put up with your films a little slower than normal and without any action, effects or gore then give it a go - all performances better than your average horror/supernatural flick and a slightly different premise which really works.http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/
