Best movie of this year hands down!

just watch it!

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

I've read most of the reviews on here and not one mentions these points, so here they are. Chick is on the cell, walking to a house to babysit, in the dark no less, and has to refer to directions to get there. Did she click her heels together to get to the neighborhood? She must have, because if she lived on the road she'd know where the house was. If someone dropped her off? Why not AT the house duh!?! She feels like someone is watching her walking, yet HANGS UP with her friend?!? Swiss cheese for brains?!? THE BIG ONE. She assumes it's her boyfriend calling her cell phone all the times it's really the killer? She looks at the phone screen a lot, yet doesn't know it's NOT him?!? YOU SHOW ME A CELL PHONE THAT DOESN'T HAVE CALLER ID. I'VE NEVER SEEN ONE. If you answer a cell phone call that comes up blocked? Dumber than dirt. If they don't leave voice mail, they don't know ya. THE PARENTS. They spot the killer to let the audience know that the killer is KNOWN the dad says to mom " is that who I think it is?" Really?!?! Why not " wonder if they need help. Mentally challenged writer. I like my plots to have common sense. Not a good movie without that. There's "Suspension of disbelief" used to further a plot, then there's WTF. GUESS which one this is.

WHEN A KILLER CALLS a TheAsylum release Starring Rebekah Kochan and Chriss Anglin "MOVIEMAKER magazine recently said this about TheAsylum movie paradigm,to piggy back your film upon other studios marketing-commercials-perhaps threats of lawsuits This is why you can have 3 War Of The Worlds( including TheAsylum w/C.Thomas Howell) make money." This is a brutal movie,We can blame the success of SAW and HOSTEL,They must be painful to sell to today's teen audience(Which a whole other article). Guestar was surprised how smart some scenes are,The phone has not been this abused since SCREAM. We were glad to see Chriss Anglin again,and the lead was impressive-REBEKAH KOCHAN,the lady is so sweet and strong in When A Killer Calls,This is most impressive after the mean-spirited friend she played in EXORCISM:THE POSSESSION OF GAIL BOWERS. Hey,Are we wrong or are all text messages on phone props-wasted. The special effects by Mili Rendler are brutal,yet real looking.Faces are contorted in a cutting fashion,and Hands get hammered(NOT DRUNK ).Two other performances we liked are Mark Irvingsen as the suspect and Sarah Hall as the other girl,Mark comes on as time-bombish and Sarah is oddly compelling to the viewer.Peter Mervis ( interviewed last time)delivers a smoother film than DEAD MEN WALKING,his first TheAsylum picture and shows the learning of a craft.

Just want to inform you guys that this movie was actually pretty good !!! Thought it was a lame ass movie, but not at all, many moments in this movie wore pretty horrifying. This movie has enough blood, gore, and some sexy make out scenes of course, to keep any horror buff like me 100% satisfied! The cast was also pretty good IMO. Even though its not a high budget movie, the effects wore definitely kinda creepy sometimes. Worth watching if u like a kick ass horror movie thats for sure!!Tom

this film is basically a poor take on the old urban legend of the babysitter who gets crank calls telling her to check the children, she calls the police who trace the calls and find there coming from inside the house. when a killer calls has a story so simplistic a little kid could have written it. not much suspense, it becomes clear who the killer is halfway through the film. at the beginning, when the first victim is killed it looks like a bondage fetish scene from a porn site or something. whats up with that? the film is oh so typical slasher fare with a plot about as original as a Beatles concert. even by low budget slasher standards its cheesy. don't waste your time with this. nuff said
