High school-aged babysitter Camilla Bell is called over and over again for nearly 90 minutes in this would-be horror yawner. A crazed psychopath who has a history of hunting down other young, vivacious, and physically well-endowed young ladies for a reason which is never made clear. And ultimately an attempt at an explanation is never even pursued. Bell does what she can with her admittedly good looks and an ability to keep a straight face during the unintentionally hilarious romp, but in the end her Tom Hanks-esque role ala "Cast Away" cannot save this typical, dim-witted, and overly-done production. In the end, the phone ringing repeatedly is about as annoying and unwanted as the entire film in the end. 2 stars out of 5.
