When Death Calls (2012) Reviews
Old-school chiller!
This is a really fun anthology of scary stories. Lots of dead bodies, blood, creatures in the basement and old school things going bump in the night. Unlike the new horror films that are more like torture tales, this has fun - and downright scary - elements that I've always loved in horror: there's a monster story, a killer's-coming-to-get-you-how do-you-run-away? tale, a super natural thriller and more (sorry for being vague, I don't want to give away the plots). The tales are very well told with some superb acting, a soundtrack that gives you all the right creeps and jolts, and some nice flashes of blood and gore.
Starts off pretty bad but each story gets better than the last
A serial killer is listening in to his favorite radio show during Halloween, hosted by DJ Roxy who regales her audience with various tales of horror stories, both from her and other callers, cue anthology. The first about an adulterous one-night stand was utterly predictable and forgettable. The second about a couple staying in was marginally better and I enjoyed it somewhat, better acting as well. The third features a engaged woman alone while her future husband is away on business while something lurks in the basement is a bit of fun, if a tad stretched out. The last one suffers similar pacing problems as the previous story, but the tale of a dead wife he keeps coming back is probably the best of the bunch. All in all, not bad for a low-budget horror film despite a less than great start. Definitely have seen worse anthologies. Eye Candy: Tina Krause bares all, Pooyah Mohseni shows full frontal, Nathalie Bryant provides T&A, Darlene McCullough gives brief butt, and Rebecca Rose McCain shows her left boob
Fun Flick!
Tonight I was treated to a rare experience. A Double Feature. Even more rare was that they were both Horror movies and I was able to meet with the Director and some of the cast before and after the movies. AND EVEN MORE RARE THAN THAT I didn't spend $1000 just to get in the door. Movie prices are scarier than the most of the "Horror Flicks" I've seen. This film, "When Death Calls" by Yellow Ape Productions was very reminiscent of the old HBO series "Tales From The Crypt". It was a "Fun" horror movie experience. Similar to movies like "Planet Terror" (with an old style Cinematography)and or "Zombie Land" because it also refused to take itself "TOO" seriously. If you just want a good laugh and if you're "Jumpy" a good scream. I truly believe you would enjoy this movie.
Don't waste your time!
It's Halloween, and sexy DJ Roxy Richards is making her scariest broadcast yet - but she may not realize how scary things are going to get when an old friend calls in... Running the gamut of horror, WHEN DEATH CALLS is like a two hour horror film festival, except it's only 90 minutes long and not so good! Starring legendary scream queens Suzi Lorraine and Tina Krause! For a 40-something chick, Tina doesn't look half bad and she strip naked in the first 2 minutes of the movie for no reason whatsoever. A bit plump but then aren't most MILFS? Cut to some other younger thinner brunette who can't act at all, excepts she's naked too. In her bed. Without covers. And she's cold. Does any of this make sense? And all these girls (most who for some reason are 20 pounds overweight making them uninteresting) seem to have dreams of a guy coming to kill them. Like the plump girl in a green dress who for some reason has a butchers knife upstairs when a guy in a tux comes to kill her. Who he is is your guess. And why he can walk slowly while she runs in the street but still be right behind her is never explained. It could be all these overweight girls can't get a guy and the knives are phallic in nature. Who cares? The exposition sucks a big wet one. Are you getting the picture? The movie unfolds as a bunch of 3 minute stories because there is no plot. The movie is stoopid. Poorly written, poorly acted, poorly directed. There's even a meaningless cat fight at the end with a cow. A huge waste of time.
Enjoyable horror anthology
Disc jockey Roxy Richards (vibrantly played with sassy spark by Suzi Lorraine) encourages her listeners to call in and share scary stories during a live broadcast on Halloween night: Brash elementary school teacher Stacey Quoor (the ever-scrumptious Tina Krause in fine feisty form) gets stalked by a creepy psycho, an adulterous one night stand goes horrifically awry, a young couple who decide to stay in find themselves in great danger, an engaged woman winds up being terrorized by a predatory monster that lives in the basement of her boyfriend's home, and cheerful murdered housewife Beth Dawson (a very funny and lively performance by Nathalie Bryant) returns from the dead to torment her unfaithful husband. Writer/director Jim Haggerty does a solid job of crafting a fun ooga-booga spooky atmosphere, keeps the pace moving along at a steady clip, and delivers a few nice'n'nasty twists along the way. Moreover, the individual segments get more novel and inspired with each successive tale, with the comedic last yarn in particular rating as the definite stand-out thanks to its wickedly amusing sense of spot-on twisted black humor. Better still, several luscious ladies doff their duds: Krause bares her deliciously voluptuous body so she can take a shower, slinky brunette Pooya Mohseni sleeps in the buff, and slim blonde Bryant shows her breasts and buttocks. Kevin MacLeod's spirited shivery score does the nerve-jangling trick. A neat little omnibus outing.
