WHATEVER YOU DO, "DON'T ANSWER THE PHONE"! - 1980 B-STALKER FLICK IS TRULY THE....HORROR!!

The Horror!! - Despite it's abundance of sleeze. it's hard not to like this 1980 slasher, chock full of great Hollyweird locations (love that shot in front of Gazzari's with the KWEST stickers) and one of the cheesiest acting performances ever by lead actor Nicolas Worth. Pinewoods Rating System - Two Pinewoods....The Horror!!

Don't Answer the Phone! (Robert Hammer, 1980)

The seediness of Hollywood circa 1980 is yet again explored with a graceless morass in the inappropriately titled Don't Answer the Phone!Inappropriate because the act of picking up a ringing telephone will not endanger your life in this film (the original title The Hollywood Strangler is much more apt).

Don't Answer the Phone

A popular exploitation flick unleashed during the height of the stalker/slasher craze, DON'T ANSWER THE PHONE was blasted by critics upon release, but has developed a strong fanbase mainly due to its star, Nicholas Worth.

THE ABSOLUTE HORROR!!
