Reviews
Despite its intriguing premise, 'Murder by Phone' fails to deliver the scares and thrills expected from a horror film. Critics have pointed out the lackluster execution and predictable plot twists that undermine the impact of the movie. The performances, including Richard Chamberlain's, are often criticized for their wooden delivery and lack of depth. The special effects, although innovative for their time, now appear dated and unconvincing. Overall, the consensus is that 'Murder by Phone' falls short of its potential, scoring a mediocre rating of 5.4/10 on IMDb. While some viewers may find entertainment in its campy charm, most audiences are left disappointed by its lack of genuine frights and suspense.
