Throwback Thursday: One Missed Call


About the Film: One Missed Call ( 2007 ) was written by Andrew Klavan and directed by Eric Valette 

and stars Shannyn Sossamon, Edward Burns and Meagan Good. This isn't another Ring movie or another 

Grudge, One missed Call ruined ringtones and cell phone calls for months after the film was released. Calling 

people with this tone makes for a great prank. In the film a Ghost is able to use phone calls to haunt and 

murder its victims. Beth Raymond must fight for her and her friends life in this crazy Horror Thriller. 



My Opinion: Miss Shannyn stuns as always in this movie and remains one of my favorite horror films. Yes 

this movie is cliche and predictable at best but somehow there's something special about it for me. It does 

have its good scares but it is the mystery behind it that makes it worth watching. They chose a beautiful cast 

to keep you captivated and wanting more. If you heard the theme ringtone of this film would you answer it?
