The Call (Halle Berry) Netflix

[Laila747]

Who’s seen this??

AIBU to have been totally freaked out by this film?
Not many films/documentaries have given me the creeps but yikes...I hardly slept last night after watching this!
Still felt a bit jumpy going downstairs to get a cuppa for me and OH

OH said it was crap and not scary at all...

So am I wrong? Was it crap and I’m just a big wuss?

I watched it many years ago and hardly remember it. I enjoyed it but I've seen much worse, in the sense of scary. YANBU if you were spooked by it. I felt like that after watching The Sixth Sense. Couldn't go to the loo in the middle of the night for so long!

Oooh must watch it. I like things that stay with you.

It's funny, sixth sense did stay with me but it did not frighten me in my daily life.

I really like this film I like how resourceful they were as opposed to just giving up!
I always think how scary it is that there are (thankfully not many!) some people out there who are driven to take people and hurt them.
I love a good suspense film, but can't do jump scare horror/supernatural any more, that's what would stop me sleeping now.

I’m not usually a fan of ‘thriller’ type films but this had me hooked from the start!
I’d never really thought of how the 999/911 operators must cope hearing such horrific things.

I’m still never going downstairs at night to get a drink on my own though....

Just watched 15 minutes of that film. What a harrowing job it must be.
There's a danish film ''The guilty'' about a 112 operator as well. I found that draining more than ''thrilling''. Needed a week off work after it! And mine is a desk job.

I just watched that. Good grief. I need glass of wine. Is it too early?

I watched it a few years ago, I’m a major wimp when it comes to films but don’t remember being scared.

Do remember the part where she sticks her arm out the light of the bonnet though and thinking that’s a good idea- if it ever happens to me I know what to do 😂

I felt like I should be taking notes...just incase!

Paint ✔️
Smash back light ✔️
Make sure phone is always charged ✔️
Never go anywhere on my own ever again ✔️

I remember it being good and tense, but not scary.

Don't forget carrying an extra phone.

I watched it a few nights ago, didn't find it too scary but can see how it might be triggering and emotionally charging. I did enjoy it but that ending didn't quite morally sit right with me even if "deserved".

Ahh the ending was the best bit!! 10 years in prison then back out to kill a few more girls......nahhhhh!

Loved it!

I liked it

DH and I also watched this last night.
I thought it was a great film. Thought provoking, in that the call handlers may never get closure, especially on life/death/harrowing calls
