When a Stranger Calls

Very good scary movie! A teenage girl who is babysitting for the family of a wealthy doctor (the house is gorgeous!) gets repeatedly taunted by calls from a killer. I watched the original When A Stranger Calls from the 70’s and this one is way better!

I loved this movie growing up especially around the time when having a babysitter was a big deal.

I’ll never understand how this movie has such bad ratings. I love it, and I love how you feel isolated and trapped in that ultra modern house along with the main character. I also love how nature sort of becomes a character with the wind and the lights flashing from outside

You have to have a low iq to actually think this movie is good let alone scary. It’s just so stupid.

Loved this movie

This movie was pretty good.

Horrible acting and boring as hell. If I could give a zero star rating, I would.

This movie is good and ok. But I kind of liked it in a way.

It was really frightening and had many clever suspense scenes but it is pretty short.

I've never seen the original 1979 Fred Walton film that this movie was based on, but I didn't think I had to, considering that as a movie, it should be good enough to stand on its own. Boy was I 1000% WRONG. Boring, boring BORING! That's all this was for 87 minutes. Unfortunately, as are most teen-directed, modern day horror flicks, once again we the viewing audience are treated to no character development from our lead stars, incredibly rushed and boring exposition, and almost zero suspense. Seriously, how long does it take to actually show the stalker?!? I get that it's supposed to also be based on "The Babysitter and the Man Upstairs", but that would work much better as a 10 - 15 minute short film, NOT an almost hour and a half film. Hang up on this one, folks, and just read a good book instead.
