I admit, since the DVDs are free and all it takes is my time, I'm more eager to pick some things from the DVDTalk screener pool than I would be if it was my own money (rental or otherwise) at stake.

Shawn is the movie's token gay character, and his over-the-top "camp" caricature is actually louder than the jump scares. The DVD, Video and AudioScreen Media sent a DVD-case-sized cardboard sleeve with a "Screening Copy Only" DVD inside of it, so I'm not going to judge the A/V quality of this release, should it change before the title comes out. The gleaming direction is by-the-book and the material is quite hackneyed with poorly realised red herrings within its elaborate plotting and flimsy script. By the time exams are over, 75 has become a popular campus pastime among all the students, and one rich classmate invites the Crew to his massive mansion in the Colorado hills for a wild weekend of partying. But when one of the Crew accidentally calls the wrong person, the once-playful scares become all too real. 10 years, later, a new bunch of kids (who might as well be unidentified given how boring they are) play their own round of prank phone calls and end up connected to an equally murderous man who may or may not be the very same killer, while a tired-looking Rutger Hauer discovers the surviving kids (still basically anonymous and separate from the central plot) are being picked off one by one. It's already a cliche, but the up-to-11 volume enthusiastically takes the practice into self-parody.

Every second this guy was on the screen was a second I felt embarrassed for Legarreta and put off that Hooks, Taylor, and Nutt had written such a role. Dead Tone doesn't go quite that far, but it does hold back several pertinent points of information that make the reveals quite confusing unless the viewer sits there and thinks about it, and who wants to think while watching a movie like this? By night Oliver aimlessly wanders the streets and bars on what can only be described as a ... See full summary ». Hooks is actually pretty good, as are some of the college-age victims that make up the cast, although I mean "good" within the confines of a slasher movie as opposed to a project where actual acting would be required, and I'll point out again that it wasn't worth memorizing any of the characters' names.

An always presentable Rutger Hauer shows up in a short supportive role as a grizzled detective. Sometimes laughable, but nonetheless I was entertained mainly due to its brutal and grisly acts of pulpy violence towards some rather obnoxiously annoying college students by a psychotic killer with a battle axe. "The Crew", as they are known by their peers and dorm mates, are invited to a rich classmate's hideaway mansion high up in the hills of Colorado. A simple game of prank scare phone calls becomes an intense game of survival and escape when one of the Crew members accidentally calls the wrong person.
