All member reviews for When a Stranger Calls (1979)

 
Maybe not okay for most 13 year olds, but I handled and loved it!
This movie is a very mature audience-oriented horror flick, but I've sat through House of Wax, Saw, and Carrie and such, so I absolutely loved it! Being scared is a big hobby of mine, and I've seen so many horror movies, the gore dosen't at all bother me anymore. You have to have a strong stomach to handle this one, but it will remain a classic like Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, another favorite of mine!

Beginning Great.... The Rest Ehhh
The beginning of this film keeps me on the edge of my seat every time, it's a great beginning. But after the beginning the film is just pointless and boring. Although the ending is suspenseful but it's the ending of a different movie, and the same for the middle, totally different movie.

Eerie,tension packed and bloody intense.What more could a horror movie deserve?
Ok,I've to admit even though this didn't make me lift a finger,it really scared the holy crap out of my brother when he watched.he still remembers it up to now.basically it's about this babysitter who gets terrorized by a killer.she gets a phone call saying "have you checked the kids lately?"tension starts from there.she calls the cops,and the call gets traced from inside the house.creepy enough,eh?the rest of the story will probably give your kids under 8 nightmares so don't buy it for them if you are not confident.i won't spoil it but it's really intense.go watch it first before you let your kids.
