One Missed Call

The story centers on a series of characters who receive eerie voice-mails from their future selves, each message containing the exact date, time, and circumstances of their deaths. As the recipients try to unravel the mystery behind these fatal phone calls, they confront themes of fate, fear, and mortality. The film combines horror conventions with a police procedural angle, as law enforcement becomes involved in investigating the supernatural events.

Eric Valette, known for his work in suspense and thriller genres, directs this American remake that retains much of the eerie atmosphere of the original Japanese version. The cast includes Shannyn Sossamon as the protagonist, alongside Edward Burns and Ana Claudia Talancón, who bring a grounded presence to the unfolding supernatural mystery. Ray Wise and Meagan Good also contribute notable supporting roles.

One Missed Call was produced by Intermedia Films, Alcon Entertainment, and Kadokawa, with Warner Bros. Pictures handling distribution. The film fits into the mid-2000s wave of American remakes of Asian horror films, reflecting Hollywood’s interest in adapting international horror stories for wider audiences.

Collectors can find One Missed Call in a variety of physical formats, including DVD, Blu-ray, and HD DVD. Each format reflects the era's shifting home media landscape and offers different options for ownership. While no particular edition has been singled out for extras or restorations, the availability across formats allows collectors to choose based on preference or compatibility with their setups.

The film’s premise involving supernatural voice-mails and its place within the horror remake trend make it a noteworthy title for genre enthusiasts. Its relatively short runtime of 87 minutes ensures a brisk, tension-driven experience that complements its eerie concept.
