Then another. And another. College students discover eerie voicemail messages on their cell phones. Each call comes from the near future. Each call has the chilling voice of the student during his or her last moments alive. And each call comes true. Terror is One Missed Call away in this got-your-number shocker based on the hit Japanese thriller Chakushin ari. Does the viral spree of calls have a single source? Is there something that links the victims? Psych student Beth Raymond (Shannyn Sossamon) and detective Jack Andrews (Ed Burns) scramble for answers. And they?re working fast. Because Beth just discovered an ominous message.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: HORROR/PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER UPC: 085391139126 Manufacturer No: 113912 Amazon.com: Yet more modern technology falls prey to the influence of eeeeevil spirits in One Missed Call, a horror flick following firmly in the footsteps of The Ring, Pulse, and other remakes of Japanese creepfests. Good-looking young people are receiving voice-mails that prefigure their gruesome deaths; Beth (Shannyn Sossamon, 40 Days and 40 Nights) and Jack (Ed Burns) race against time to find the source of this cell-phone curse, leading them to a dark and treacherous burnt-out hospital. Little is fresh here--One Missed Call apes every other Japanese horror remake, using corpse makeup, blurry images at the corner of the screen or just out of sight, lots of ambient rattles and gasps, spooky-looking children, and the slow, trembling turn towards a ringing phone... which stopped being scary about four or five movies ago. But for fans of this particular subgenre, One Missed Call may evoke the warm, enjoyable familiarity that devotees of 1970s horror feel towards the repetitive output of Hammer Films. Ray Wise (Reaper, Twin Peaks) has a bit of fun as a cynical TV producer; comedian Margaret Cho has such a brief, throwaway part as a skeptical cop that one wonders if the rest of her role is on the cutting room floor; and Meagan Good (Brick, Stomp the Yard) gets prominent billing but is hardly in the movie at all. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A missable movieI haven't seen the Miike original so I can't compare the two films but as this one stands it's okay nothing more. It is nice to see the gorgeous Shannyn Sossamon in a lead role. She plays a young college student whose friends all receive terrifying voice messages days before they die. When two classmates of hers die she fears it is only a matter of time before her phone will ring so she teams up with a detective played by Ed Burns whose sister has just died in similar circumstances. Together the ... Read More Rating: - Yet Another Not-So-Scary J-Horror RemakeIn "One Missed Call" a group of young Americans receive a strange message. It is a voicemail apparently recorded by themselves at the moment of their own deaths that will happen in a few days. The premise is surely unbelievable, even absurd at times, but still interesting, I admit, but you have to be very careful in turning it into a film because this kind of story becomes silly on screen pretty easily. Sadly this is exactly what happens in the remake version of "One Missed Call." Shannyn ... Read More Rating:  - Pretty creepy for a PG-13 movie!I don't know what everybody's problem is. I guess these reviewers need a lot of sadistic gore (via Saw)to deem a horror movie watchable. OK, when I finally got to rent the movie (it seemed to always be out), I was disappointed to discover it was PG-13. So, after disappointing unrated junk like Dead Silence, I went in with very low expectations, and was delightfully surprised. This movie was creepy and tense and had many disturbing images and didn't have to resort to cheap (or expensive) gore effects to ...
