Well here we are returning once more to THE CALLER, a flick about weird sh*t happening around phones. THE CALLER is actually based on another Japanese horror flick called DOT THE I (above). There’s an interesting story behind this flick, Brittany Murphy was once scheduled to take the lead in the flick before her untimely passing. After the actress passed away the project (and several others) were put on hold until the filmmakers knew what to do. It wasn’t a hard decision. The lead was given to another gal and then it was all full speed ahead!
Dread Central writes on the crew of THE CALLER releasing their first one sheet. As usual click on the image below to be re-directed. There you should see all the goods and when I mean goods I mean a very dark and ominous looking movie. Check it out yourself.
The almighty synopsis: “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 realizes 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’, ‘The Caller’ is a chilling supernatural thriller in the tradition of ‘The Grudge’ and ‘The Ring’.”
Matthew Parkhill is acting as Director of THE CALLER with Sergio Casti as the scribe. TRUE BLOOD star Stephen Moyer and Luis Guzman are also attached to star alongside the new gal. Rachelle Lefevre takes on the roll that Murphy was set to star in and while their acting styles are worlds apart, it’s going to be interesting to see how this fairs out on screen.
What’s the verdict folks? Looking good or is this a ticket you won‘t be buying?
