Why was this TRASH MADE??!?!, 6 January 2008
1/10
Author: Big_T1307 from Canada

When I went into the theater to see this movie, I had some doubts, like The Grudge and The Ring were pretty bad and has there ever been a really good Japanese horror remake in America? Now answer these questions to yourself, 1. Do you like watching movies with no plot at all? 2. Do you enjoy movies where you have no idea at all of what's going on? 3. Do you like movies with 0% character development? 4. Do you enjoy watching a bunch of teens 'try' to act and not succeed? 5. Do you think a baby with a cellphone is extremely scary? 6. Do you like sleeping in theaters?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, go right ahead and waste some hard earned cash on this really super awesome amazing incredible movie, if you answered no to all of these questions, go rent or buy Superbad, trust me, you will have way more fun, and if you want a good horror movie, go rent or buy The Exorcist because One Missed Call is an embarrassment to the horror genre. The only fun I had at this movie was listening to other people yell out funny things like "What the f*ck?!"

I give this movie a quarter of a star out of 10
