Shudder Review: The Call (2021) Starring Lin Shaye And Tobin Bell

Lin Shaye (Insidious) and Tobin Bell (Saw) star in The Call, the new supernatural horror film from Emmy® Nominated Director Timothy Woodward Jr. Set in the fall of 1987, a group of small-town friends must survive the night in the home of a sinister couple after a tragic accident occurs. Needing only to make a single phone call, the request seems horribly ordinary until they realize that this call could change their life…or end it. Filled with twist after twist, the film reveals lies, secrets, and horrible deeds done by a teenage group, including the harassment they have committed against the elderly couple for years. In the first half of the movie you are given reason after reason to dislike these kids then the movie attempts to trigger your empathy halfway through by revealing their past traumas. But the group is flat-out unlikeable. They are rude, cruel, and well, just assholes in general, save for the new guy (Chester Rushing).

Movie Review: Let Us In

Director Craig Moss’s Let Us In is a gateway horror film based on the urban legend of black-eyed children. As an early introduction for preteens to science fiction and horror elements, it offers some amusing sequences, but teens and adults will likely find the proceedings predictable and the humor corny. Twelve-year-old Emily (Makenzie Moss) is still reeling from the accidental death of her older sister and has become the target of verbal bullying from the mean girls at her middle school. She is working on a science fair project to contact extraterrestrial life using common electronics parts with her best friend, 10-year-old Christopher (O’Neill Monahan). This is where childhood imagination or massive suspension of disbelief for viewers older than the early elementary school years becomes necessary, and I don’t mean that sarcastically. Meanwhile, local teens start disappearing when intimidating black-eyed kids come calling, asking “Will you let us in?” These hoodie-wearing nasties won’t easily take no for an answer, and

Friends Try To Survive Lin Shaye & Tobin Bell This December In ‘The Call’

The Call, from Emmy® Nominated Director Timothy Woodward Jr., is headed to Blu-ray and DVD this December. Horror icons Lin Shaye (Insidious franchise, Ouija) and Tobin Bell (Saw, Jigsaw), star. Set in the fall of 1987, a group of small-town friends must survive the night in the home of a sinister couple after a tragic accident occurs. Needing only to make a single phone call, the request seems horribly ordinary until they realize that this call could change their life…or end it. Pairing Tobin and Lin, or Saw’s Jigsaw and Insidious’ Elise Rainier as they’re known to horror fans around the world, brings so much terror to the screen,” said Emmy® Nominated Director Timothy Woodward Jr. “Their chemistry is undeniable, and the power of their scenes splinters off, creating this dark, macabre world these characters are forced to survive in.” The film was written by Patrick Stibbs and produced by Final Destination creator Jeffrey Reddick, Stibbs, Zebulun Huling, Gina Rugolo,

From the Creator Of Final Destination Comes ‘The Call’ – Out This Halloween

“Four Friends. One Phone Call. 60 Seconds to Stay Alive. In the fall of 1987, a group of small-town friends must survive the night in the home of a sinister couple after a tragic accident occurs in The Call. Needing only to make a single phone call, the request seems rather simple until they realize that this call could change their life…or end it.” Led by horror icons Lin Shaye (Insidious franchise, Ouija) and Tobin Bell (Saw, Jigsaw), The Call has been a hit with both audiences and critics alike. In addition to the strong performances from the cast, the film benefited from the uncompromising direction of Timothy Woodward Jr. and the fear-inducing vision of Final Destination creator Jeffrey Reddick whose film Don’t Look Back (review) has also just been released. After a successful nationwide theatrical and drive-in run, The Call premieres on October 30th on Premium VOD and Digital platforms.
