It was hard making threatening phone calls in the 1990s because you had to know when your mark was going to be home to answer.
That's the reason why the killer in this horror movie lurks outside their victim's house.
On the anniversary of her mother's murder at the hands of Cotton (Liev Schreiber), high school senior Sidney (Neve Campbell) receives a call from a stranger taunting her loss. Shortly thereafter a knife-wielding maniac in a mask invades her home. As bodies pile up, Sidney suspects Cotton may be innocent. So who's the real killer?
Inspired by actual events with a healthy does of humour added, this homage to slasher movies from Wes Craven is also a critique of the genre that riffs on conventions and created an iconic killer who still haunts us.
Furthermore, threatening phone calls in the 1990s helped prepare humanity for the Internet trolls of the 2010s. Green Light
