When a Stranger Calls fails as a horror story
12/05/2006 - 13:57:06When a Stranger Calls
Director: Simon West
Cast: Camilla Belle, Tommy Flanagan, Derek de Lint, Katie Cassidy
Cert: 15
It’s the old – and not very satisfying – girl-in-lonely-house horror story that fails to add anything new or interesting to the genre.
Belle plays the girl whose babysitting tasks are interrupted by mysterious and sinister ‘phone calls.
She contacts the police who trace the calls … to inside the house itself.
Not for those who truly love a good nail-chewer … this doesn’t come close.
Star Rating: 1/5
