So...This anything more than the "Ring" clone it looks like?

Fox 12-30-2007 02:11 PM

But this is SO different! The Ring was about VHS! This is about CELL PHONES! OMG the originality.

Did I tell you my idea for a movie where people start dying after watching a viral video promotion?

Nowhere Man 12-30-2007 02:19 PM

They really oughta just call it "The Ring....Tone"

Fox 12-30-2007 02:23 PM

"This ring tone costs more than $2.49...

It costs YOUR LIFE.

Please press "OK" to accept."

That actually made me chuckle..

Well done..

One Missed Call was probably one of the better J-Horror films that got widely known (Ju-on, Ringu, Audition, Kairo, etc). It was one of my favorite 'horror' flicks when I saw it. Sequel was shit though.

Don't know what the American version is gonna be like though... Probably not that good. I dunno.

ClockShot 12-30-2007 07:17 PM

Yeah. This is just an american remake of the Japanese hit Chakushin Ari.

Does anybody know if the One Missed Call ringtone is gonna be available for download?

God, I forgot how unoriginal the Japanese were....

Fryza 12-30-2007 07:57 PM

Eh. Every country has it's own originality issues. The Japanese love ghost/spirit oriented shit, so the same thing gets repeated.

Least their crap isn't constantly blood and guts with an added sex scene and a horrible cast...

Clock- You asking about the Japanese ringtone, or the current movie's ringtone?

Kane Knight 12-30-2007 08:21 PM

Semantics.

Fryza 12-30-2007 08:23 PM

No, this has nothing to do with the Jews.

With Hollywood PG-13'ing a lot of the main stream horror movies in order to pull in the younger audiences, we don't even get the obligatory sex scene anymore.

Don't forget about Fear Dot Com, about the killer...website.

Meh...I'm not looking forward to this at all.
The previews weren't even good.

But seriously, any argument of the absence of those elements is completely ridiculous.

I did not know you were talking about a movie until this post.

Well thats a pretty fucked up logic.

Champion of Europa 01-04-2008 10:38 PM

This movie was so bad.

When we previewed it, we thought I built it out of order because of the lack of a satisfactory and logical ending, or an ending in general, but it ended up being built correctly. It's just a terrible film.

Kane Knight 01-04-2008 11:18 PM

CoE hates it; I'm having second thoughts.

Kane Knight 01-04-2008 11:19 PM

No offense, man. Just that what we enjoy in movies seems to be almost completely polar.

El Fangel 01-05-2008 12:02 AM

Read review, and seen poster, looks stupid, but hey could defy itself.

I'm always interested to see what's the percentage of positive reviews it gets on Rotten Tomatoes, and this is the first modern film I've searched that actually has 0% :lol:
