Yup, we're still on top of our game. First (and only) announced here on Bloody Disgusting was The Caller, a new film from the company behind Wolf Creek. While we brought you the director (Mathew Parkhill), writer (Sergio Casci) and synopsis (read below), the Hollywood Reporter has learned that Brittany Murphy (Across the Hall, Deadline, The Dead Girl), Stephen Moyer ("True Blood", Priest) and Luis Guzma have all joined the J-horror flick that begins shooting in Puerto Rico on Friday.
"Penned by Sergio Casci, when troubled divorcee, Mary Kee, begins to receive mysterious phone calls from an unknown caller she quickly begins to feel haunted in her own home. When she discovers that the person is calling from the past, Mary realises that she will have to kill her in order to survive but how do you kill someone living in the past and what will happen if she fails. From the director of the internationally acclaimed dot the i, Caller is a chilling supernatural thriller in the tradition of The Grudge and The Ring."
I feel like I've seen this a few times before. This doesn't seem interesting to me. Why is it that J-horror seems to all be closely to the exact same thing.
Sounds like "When a Stranger Calls", except the "person" is in the phone. Creepy, paranormal, and that is what scares me. How do you really "kill" an apparition. I like Britney Murphy, so it could be pretty good.
First off, how do you discover someone is calling from the past? (B), how do you come to the realization that you must kill them...somehow from the past? And three, wasn't this a movie starring Jim Caveziel (aka Jesus Christ)?
Brittan'ys plastic surgery will be the only thing scary in this film.
