   Is 'when a stranger calls' a good movie?

   • Though When a Stranger Calls has its virtues through stirring production design and an intriguing premise, the film largely suffers from poor performances and saddening writing. Mild thriller enthusiasts should pay a visit to Simon West's babysitting nightmare, but those pursuing true terror should shy away.

   Is 'when a stranger calls' a fright-free remake?

   • When a Stranger Calls ranks among the more misguided remakes in horror history, offering little more than a rote, largely fright-free update to the original. If you've seen either Black Christmas or Halloween, there's nothing new here: the hyped-up score keeps telling us we ought to be scared, but the suspense feels mechanical and fake.

   Does a stranger calls count as a suspense movie?

   • When a Stranger Calls does not herald a major film-making talent -- it's just another textbook experiment in terror. You will jump, though. What counts in a suspense movie is the way in which tension mounts in which the film leads you on, in the way climaxes explode on the screen. Page 1 of 4, 7 total items.

   Is 'stranger' a good movie?

   • Although Walton contrives to keep most of his contrivances on the safe side of absurdity, "Stranger" is at best a close call. Two movies, one sandwiched inside the other, and the two movies have completely different goals, tones, and arguably even genres.

   Is 'when a stranger calls' the scariest opening in film history?

   • When a Stranger Calls boasts the scariest opening in film history. Wes Craven completely ripped this intro off in Scream. It's that good. Too bad the rest of the film isn't. It goes completely downhill after the beginning. It's so scary and has such a tense start that you can hardly watch it without holding your breathe.
