Middling suspense tale.

| Original Score: C | Feb 18, 2012

It's a safe dumb film for safe dumb audiences.

| Apr 29, 2009

Amateurish direction by Simon West ("Laura Croft: Tomb Raider") contributes to the utter failure of this pathetic update of the original film of the same title.

| Original Score: D | Apr 20, 2009

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jul 14, 2007

If you've seen either Black Christmas or Halloween, there's nothing new here: the hyped-up score keeps telling us we ought to be scared, but the suspense feels mechanical and fake.

| Jun 24, 2006

No plot, no originality, no stars -- and no reason for you to go and see this crap.

...just as needless a remake as one might've expected.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 27, 2006

You know a horror movie's in trouble when the fake scares outweigh the real ones.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 16, 2006

I can't help feeling that this updating could have been a little more imaginative -- the only wrinkle on the basic plot is that it uses mobile phones.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 13, 2006

While teen chillers tend to be exercises in extreme dullness, at least director Simon West tries to wring some suspense out of the scenes here.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 12, 2006

Having abstained from character development and stalling for something to do between calls, the movie dwells in the house's dark corners, plugging plot holes with overzealous sound design.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 12, 2006

Atmospheric but generally disappointing thriller, despite a passably tense climax and an eye-catching performance by newcomer Camilla Belle.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 12, 2006

Loud, noisy, flashy but too rarely chilling.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 12, 2006

This year's "I Know What You Did Last Summer"...You'll be totally immersed and near on the verge of drawing sweat

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 12, 2006

Não percebe que a premissa é insuficiente para sustentar 90 minutos de duração e, conseqüentemente, o resultado deixa muito a desejar com relação ao original.

...it did half the trick for me and for that...it receives half the marks.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Mar 24, 2006

I'll be damned if I can find anything to like

Full Review | Mar 16, 2006

This remake of a 1979 thriller starring Carol Kane isn't particularly mysterious ... Unexpectedly, given his background in exploitation dramas, director Simon West doesn't push the horror to the max.

Long distance information? Get me Hollywood, USA: I've got a rusty ice pick to bury in the gullet of whoever greenlighted this pointless exercise.
