ONE MISSED CALL, based on a Japanese movie I’ve never seen that was in turn based upon a Japanese novel I never read, is unfortunately not a movie I will wholeheartedly recommend. It has moments, and gets very close to being something worthwhile, but just when it’s about to get there, it pulls back. Ah well, the movie can still hold bragging rights over the American remake of DARK WATER, which is the all-time champion of what not to do.
The poster is damn creepy – shame it’s only based
