When a Stranger Calls Back (1993 TV Movie)
7/10
Chilling opening, and that's about it.
28 October 1999
After a chilling and genuinely frightening opening 15 minutes, this film rapidly goes down hill, picking up a little speed towards the end.

Carol Kane plays the support worker to a college girl who was harassed one night while babysitting, only to start to be harassed herself.

When a Stranger Calls Back is not a patch on the first film, the opening scenes of the original movie will be stuck in my head for years to come. This one simply tries to imitate it. WASCB is by no means a bad film, but since it is a sequel, it will always be compared to the far superior original. Worth a watch if you like being scared and have nothing better to do.
