Don't Hang Up (1974)
7/10
Hang Up the Phone!
19 April 2023
Don't Open the Door could be S. F. Brownrigg's most technically accomplished and proficient film and the story is compelling even if there are a full dull stretches of padding or downtime when the stakes should be getting higher.

It's about a young woman who returns home and start receiving creepy phone calls from a pervert who's obsessed with her and her murdered mother.

Brownrigg employs many of his usual group of engaging actors and they do a good enough job in bringing a little pep to the proceedings when the pacing takes a dive. It doesn't have the manic, anything goes atmosphere of Don't Look in the Basement, but when it finally gets going, it does deliver.
