The When A Stranger Calls trailer is up and running on the web. Never heard of it yet? You’re not alone, but it is indeed getting a wide release on February 3rd. The film has a synopsis that we’ve heard about a thousand times in various other films/tv shows/late night stories:
During an otherwise routine babysitting gig, a high-school student is harassed by an increasingly threatening prank caller.
Oh but you just know things go far beyond a prank call don’t you? Anyway, as I said there’s nothing noteworthy or groundbreaking about the concept behind this one, as a matter of fact it looks like a remake of the 1979 version of the same name.
Still, I’ll give the When a Stranger Calls trailer this much… it does at least feel eerie. It’s obviously low budget (lack of any recognizable names) and makes you think “oh crap… she’s screwed!”.
I’m not saying this is going to be good… but the trailer is at least good enough to catch my attention. You can see the When A Stranger Calls trailer here.
