Fear gives you nowhere to run

This film is said to be a remake of a classic film in the 1970s. Although it is old-fashioned, after all, it has the bottom of the original, and it will not be too bad. The shadows of the trees and the dim lights are not a romantic plot, but the horror element of the film. Add to that the harsh phone ringing that suddenly rang in the silence, and the heavy breathing on the other end of the phone. Unlike "Midnight Bell", which has a terrifying image of Sadako, it can be seen that this is a film that wants to play psychological horror. But the climax of the film has basically become an action movie, with the heroine fighting an apparently human object with all her might. In the end, the murderer turned out to be a stranger. I thought it belonged to someone who had appeared before. This ending took away the last bit of suspense and made the film second-rate.
The heroine is said to be a child star, and now she is very attractive, with a beautiful face that mixes East and West, a bit like Rinoa in FF8. Most of the time in this film, she is alone. She can bring the fear of the protagonist to the audience through external performances at a young age, and a new star is rising.
A few trivial points: The caller ID in the United States is so strong that it can display the name. Could it be that their mobile phone is a real-name system? There are many blind spots in the US cell phone network. When buying a house, don't buy it in the wilderness. At that time, you should not use it every day, and you should not use automatic induction lights at home. When an accident occurs, no one will help you. The only thing you can do is to exercise regularly, and there may be a chance of survival!
