What Parents Need to Know
About One Missed Call
Parents need to know that this Japanese horror remake features frequent tense scenes and some grisly deaths, with mutilated bodies and screaming victims. The movie's thematic focus on child abuse is vague and incoherent, but it might still provoke questions from attentive younger viewers. Violence includes choking, burning, stabbing, a rod going through a chest, and a girl getting hit by a train. Several girls show cleavage, and there's a very brief shot of a college girl in her bra. Language includes "s--t" and "damn," and there's some drinking and smoking.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the many U.S. remakes of Japanese (and other Asian) horror movies. How do these moody, strange films translate for American audiences? Why do you think their focus on spirits and hauntings is so popular? How do you think the remakes are similar to and different from the originals? And why do you think many of them revolve around media (videos, cell phones, etc.)?

BORING!
This movie was SO predictable and not scary at all! You knew exactly what was gonna happen the whole movie. Definitely a waste of your time.

NOT SCARY IN ANY WAY!!
I absolutly loved this movie, it had a good plot around it. It had very good acting, some bad graphics. I loved it 13 and up could see this. Not scary!!!

Not Bad
Awsome. There is a lot of killing though. At one part a burned zombie crawls on a lady in a air vent.
- I rate this title iffy for age 10 and give itMy concerns are:
- Inappropriate language
- Negative role models
I think this movie was the WORST movie i've ever seen, Not scary at all and VERY stupid. I would never watch it again.

The scariest part of this movie is the cover of the box. Not a scary film

One missed call is a decent, remake that is not scary but entertaining
One missed call (2008) Rated: PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and terror, frightening images, some sexual content, and thematic elements Sex/Nudity: A brief ten second scene where a couple is shown having an affair and they are interrupted (no nudity is visible). A guy talks about having sex and phone sex. Violence/Scariness: A girl falls over a staircase and runs into a train. You see her corpse. A girl gets sucked in water by something unseen and a cat gets sucked in water too. A girl is shown having an exorcism and the lights flash on and off. There is something in her neck moving (with the implication that it's fingers) and she is killed and we see a red candy pop out of her mouth. A guy gets impaled by an arrow. (No gore or blood is visible). A guy's eye is gouged by a stick. More gruesome and disturbing deaths take place. Profanity: Anatomical and scatalogical terms, name-calling, religious exclamations Substance use: Characters drink at a party Social Behavior: Off Commercialism: Not that I can recall Age recommendation: 13+

An amazing movie!
This was such a great movie! Pretty much no blood, or gore. A tiny bit of sexual content at the beginning, but you won't remember it by the end. It was very scary, and if you don't like scary things, don't watch this. There is one part that has a little girl being abused by her mother, which oculd be disturbing for some kids. Any fan of horror should watch this movie.

An Absolute Mess of a Movie
I watched this movie by a netflix rental, but there was a short wait for it, and it didn't come. But when I watched this, it was totally boring and stupid! But the reason I didn't give this 0 or 1 star(s) is because it is a horror movie that gets you thinking. This movie is very violent, and there is some sexual content, but only one actual situation.

a little iffy, fun with friends (and mature view on horrors)
I liked this movie as a sort of one time, scare yourself fun-night. Not a terribly gory film either, thought there were some parts where I kind of was unhappy about the way someone might die- really no blood though, which is good.. and typical. This movie wasn't as good as I expected it to be, and was scary as in jumpy/suspenseful. I think its no problem fore kids... 13 and up, as long as your mature about it. Similar to THE MESSENGERS as in they are both jumpy, over dramatic japanese flicks.

good movie
good movie it is no problem for kids under 10
- I rate this title off for age 17 and give it
Garbage.....not for kids
How did PG13 end up looking like this? Not all all appropriate for viewers under 17...unless (parents) you want your tweens obsessing over sex, alcohol/drug use and horrific violence/gore all in one fell swoop.

Very Intense
I loved this movie so much that i was laughing when i was screaming. When that zombie got on top of the girl me and my friends thought they were going to have fun, until we realized that the moster had a briteny. Violence is scary and small language.

1 missed call
It was okay. It wasnt as good as i thought it would be. It was much scarier though. I went with 7 other kids and none of us really liked it. It had a lot of pop outs. The ending was really dumb.
