MCT:October 6, 2008Jill Johnson: [phone rings]
[answers]
Jill Johnson: Stop calling me you sick...
Officer Burroughs: Jill, Jill. We traced the call! It's coming from inside the house! Do you hear me? It's coming from inside the house! You need to get out! Jill?
[power goes out]
In a remote hilltop house, high school student Jill Johnson (Camilla Belle) settles in for a routine night of babysitting. With the children sound asleep and a beautiful home to explore, she locks the door and sets the alarm. But when a series of eerie phone calls from a stranger insist that she "check the children," Jill begins to panic. Fear escalates to terror when she has the calls traced and learns that they are coming from inside the house. Jill must summon all of her inner strength if she is going to fight back and make it out of the house alive.
Wow, that was crappy. I'm glad I didn't buy it, it just so happened it was being shown on cable TV so with nothing better to do, I watched it from start to finish. Take note, I painstakingly watched it from start to finish. If the makers of the movie wanted to make this an eerie, creepy movie thrill ride, well, obviously they failed miserably. The movie is overridden with stereotypical Hollywood horror clichés, a script so bad its like blunt force trauma straight to your noggin and the acting so bad, it'll make you laugh.
This is a suspense movie without the suspense. They should have just left the original 1979 version alone.

MCT:September 12, 2008This wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it was close to it. Choosing to watch this movie is like being in a crappy slasher and deciding to do something like explore the dark hallway you suspect the killer is in. I can't be bothered with a full appraisal of this movie, which wouldn't even tingle the teenagers it targets. You're gonna see this on Hulu, and watch it only if you have that urge to go down the wrong ill-lit path and face the killer.

MCT:January 25, 2008Camilla Belle is hot and really talented but I don't know about this one...
-
MCT:January 6, 2008It would have been a lot better if we could have seen the killer before the last 10 minutes of the movie.

MCT:January 7, 2009The sequel to the original film is possibly the scariest movie I have ever seen. And no one knows about it.

This movie is in my top 10 movies of all time, I love it. However, to experience the true greatness of this movie, you would need to watch it at the movies, like I did. It just adds to the tension. One thing I have noticed after watching it a second time, is that there is too much talking on the phone and walking around the house. It's not that annoying, but it makes the movie seem like it goes on forever, but it still gets 10/10.

I was totally building up anticipation for this movie, and was highly dissapointed when I finally got to see it. If I wanted to see someone on the phone for the majority of the movie, I would've just watched Phonebooth. At least that's a decent movie.
