I normally love getting calls on my cell phone.  But not after tonight.  I love horror movies, I always have.  But I hate what they do to me when I try to go to bed.  I have to make sure the curtains are tightly closed and the nightlight is on. Yes, I can be a bit of a scaredy cat.
This movie is with Edward Burns who plays a cop. This surprises me that Ed Burns would take a role in a horror flick like this, but then again, it’s Edward Burns, he likes weird roles. The movie also has Shannyn Sossoman (The Knight’s Tale or 40 days and 40 nights) who I hated in those movies, but in this movie I was actually rooting for her to live!
Basically, the movie is like The Grudge or The Ring. Once death (or whatever it is) picks you to die, you are pretty much screwed. This movie has the victim leaving a voicemail for themselves at the exact moment of death on the next victim’s phone. So totally unbeliveable, but still scary. I jumped at least 3 times. So I do not want to pick up my phone, especially not to the ringtone in the movie. I have a feeling my husband is looking for that ringtone for me just to freak me out.
It was a good horror movie, short and to the point. This, like The Grudge and The Ring are Japanese remakes that kind of make me want to see more. But don’t call me to talk about the movie, I probably won’t answer my phone for awhile.
