Well, luckily, I'm safe. I barely even answer a call when it's from anyone I know.
Not intentionally, mind you. 99.1% of the time the sound is off on my phone and I haven't had a landline since 9/11.
I digress. What was I here for? Oh, yeah, this crappy movie. Probably the 100th "Don't..." horror movie and it definitely rings true here.
Pretty boys, make that adults playing teens (both leads were in their later 20s and it shows) are stalked by some guy who's playing God with their electronic devices one rainy night. Why is this grown man stalking these "Teen Beat Bait?" Not for the reasons I just put into your mind.
These two are half of four disgusting "kids" who prank call people in horrific ways to get YouTube hits. Naturally. And now, the joke's on them!
That sounded more dramatic and original in my mind before I typed it. My apologizes. It's just as bad and unoriginal as this dull movie.
Immediately into this movie, any sensible human would hate these guys. Literally hate these guys and are happy this is a horror movie so they'll get the karma coming to them. Annnd, those are just two of the many flaws here. It's so incredibly predictable and you never like any of the characters.
Of course, they try to make one sympathetic, but he's just as bad or worse since he knows better. He's just a follower of his bad-news friends and says no to the bad ideas like a teen would say no to a social media post.
Everything's foreseen, the acting was laughable at best, the "villain" was so bland - such an opportunity to get a great voiceover and the ending tries to surprise you and might just do that...to the four people left that's never seen a movie before this one. The one nice thing I can say is: it wasn't badly shot. They were definitely competent in that one single category.
The rest you can skip. There are hundreds of more "home-invasion," "stalker" films out there that are 100x better than this trash.
***
Final thoughts: Please stop casting people close to 30 as your teens. It cannot be pulled off unless you CGI the hell out of them and if you plan that, just make the first Pixar Horror.
On second thought, I second that idea. THAT would be awesome!
