One Missed Call review
Back with another kiddies!
Now I know I said I would stay away from bigger budget releases, but I sometimes can't resist...WHEN WILL I LEARN????
Now I will say there were a couple a good f/x, ok acting, but the actual plot and some of the happenings in the movie leave you scratching your head.
First off stop me if you have heard this sort of plot before....electronics can be the bearer of your death. Can anyone say Ring & stay alive just to name a couple of recent ones?
Now acting was ok, like I said f/x were nice, but come on! you get a voicemail from yourself with your last words? on top of that we have to assume that there will be a cop who was connected to the string of voicemails as well as he will let you just tag along to cool awesome places and break into homes with you. Add to that we are also forced to believe that whenever you get a death voicemail, video game, vhs whatever...that you are to follow this dark creature and it will lead you to safety not death. Oh yes but other believable parts are a college student has a very nice house that is not on campus, and someone who has seen 3 straight deaths in person and has a bad reason for them will never ever ever be named a suspect. Plus, all of this same town must have 1 cell phone to choose from, because they all have some awesome flip phones, no iphones or blackberry's or nothing like that for this bunch, just everyone with flip phones, sounds believable right?
1 thing I can say though, this movie did reiterate to me that evil babies, be it in porcelain, dream or real life form are AWESOME!
God why do I watch US remakes or big budget horror to begin
WHEN WILL I EVER LEARN??????
