How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A B-movie thriller that transforms the mundane telephone into a sinister weapon, turning an everyday anxiety into genuine dread. The premise is absurd but played with straight-faced seriousness, making it a campy ride through 80s paranoia about technology.
