When a Stranger Calls:

This is a film made in 2006, it is a remake of the 1979 horror film of the same name. in the film, babysitter jill Johnson (Camilla Belle) receives increasingly threatening calls from a brutal serial killer who she first assumes is simply a juvenile prankster.

I have looked up the plot from wiki on google, and i have just taken a few bits from it to give you an idea of what it is about.

When Jill Johnson goes over her phone limits her father makes her pay by babysitting. Jill starts getting anonymous phones calls, and at first she just thought it was a joke. Her friend Tiffany comes to visits her and says that the garage door was open, nervously jill runs out and shuts it. When Tiffany leaves the house she has trouble starting her car but it starts after a few trys. Tiffany then sees that the gates are stick by branches, she goes to move them when an unseen figure approaches her from behind.
The caller calls again, nervously she then calls the police, they tell her to call if he rings again.After a while the man calls again and asks if she's checked on the children, she then suddenly runs up to them and checks on them but they are fine sleeping. When he comes back downstairs he calls again and she then realises that he is watching her.
Jill sees a light on in the guess house and runs over to investigate but no was is home. the person calls again but she notices he called the wrong line and she sees a light on in the children's rooms. she runs back.
The man calls again, jill asks what he wants and he replies 'your bloody all over me'. the police call her and warn her the calls are coming from inside the house. Tiffany phone rings but when Jill turns around she sees her friend dead. the killer chases her through the house and attacks her.
Afterwards Jill wake sup in hospital alone and the phone rings when she walks back into the room and she sees the killer in the mirror. But the audience find out that she was dreaming and has developed psychological problems from the attack.

I have watched the film myself and this film is very heart stopping , you are constantly on the tips of your seat waiting for something else to make you jump, i was very scared when i watched this, but i carried on watching it because it interested me and made me want to keep watching to see what happen because it was that catching.
