  • DIRECTOR: Bob Clark
  • ACTORS: Olivia Hussey, Keir Dullea, Margot Kidder, John Saxon, Marian Waldman, Andrea Martin, James Edmond
  • PLOT: A sorority is terrorized by a serial killer who also specializes in obscene phone calls.
  • EVALUATION: A pretty underwhelming effort most known for its influence on other, better horror films.
  • WRITING: Pretty clumsy, especially when it comes to secondary characters defined by one characteristic (drinking, stupidity, etc).
  • FILMING: Clark's direction helps this one out quite a bit, especially near the end when the camera tours through the house.
  • BEST PART: Margot Kidder gets stabbed to death
  • TRIVIA: This may be the first feature-length film to feature "The calls are coming from inside the house!"
  • STINGER: John Saxon and the other cop can't stop laughing
