Movie Media: One Missed Call - Trailer
Another Japanese import. In 2003 prolific director Takashi Miike brought the creep tale of One Missed Call to the big screen. Now, French director Eric Valette makes his English language debut with the remake of said film. The tale is a supenatural by nature and thriller by execution. A series of people receive calls on their cell phones which reveal their final moments. The cast includes Ed Burns, Shannyn Sossaman, Azura Skye, Ray Wise, and Margaret Cho. The trailer doesn't seem all that special, and it has the honor of being one of the first releases in 2008. That isn't a good sign of quality.
