The film opens with a narrated disclaimer over footage of an opening coffin. The narrator explains that the film's climax is so terrifying that it may kill the viewer, and reassures the audience that if they die of fright while watching the film, they will receive a free burial service, and it closes on the casket which has a card inside reading "Reserved for You."[1]
Newlyweds Jenni (Peggy Webber) and Eric (John Hudson) move into Eric's palatial country home. Jenni is Eric's second wife; his first wife Marion died when she accidentally slipped and hit her head on the edge of a decorative pond on the estate. At the home they meet Eric's friends, the Reverend Snow (Russ Conway) and his wife (Toni Johnson), as well as Mickey (Alex Nicol), the developmentally disabled gardener. Eric privately mentions to the Snows that Jenni spent time in an asylum following the sudden death of both her parents, and Mrs. Snow reveals that Jenni is very wealthy.
Jenni is disturbed both by Mickey's belief that Marion's ghost wanders the estate and by Marion's self-portrait inside the house, which Jenni believes resembles her mother. When she begins to hear unexplained screaming noises and see skulls around her house, she believes that Marion is haunting her. Though Eric speculates to Jenni that Mickey, who was a childhood friend of Marion and thus dislikes Jenni, may be behind the trickery, Jenni worries that she is going insane. Eric then suggests to remove Marion's self-portrait from the home. Eric and Jenni take the painting outside and burn it. While they clean up the remains of the painting, a skull emerges from the ashes. While Jenni panics at the sight of the skull, Eric denies that the skull is there. Jenni faints and Eric withdraws the skull and hides it, revealing that he was responsible for the trickery all along in an effort to get hold of her wealth.
Believing she has finally lost her sanity, Jenni resolves to be committed. She tells Eric that the entire property will be meticulously searched for the skull as a last resort. Before Eric can retrieve it, Mickey secretly steals the skull and brings it to the Reverend, revealing Eric's plans. That night, Eric prepares to murder Jenni and stage it as a suicide. Jenni sees Marion's ghost in Mickey's greenhouse and flees back to the house. When she enters, Eric begins throttling her. The ghost then appears and chases Eric outside and about the property; it finally corners and attacks him, drowning him in the decorative pond.
After Jenni regains consciousness, the Snows arrive. Mrs. Snow comforts a hysterical Jenni and the Reverend discovers Eric's body in the pond. Some undisclosed time later, Jenni and the Snows depart from the house. Reverend Snow declares whether or not Marion's death was an accident will remain a mystery.
Gyllenhaal自带暴躁警察气质，确实不错
还可以，剧情拍的紧凑，就是故事比较老套，全靠吉伦哈尔演技在撑
没看过原版，美国的翻拍版主线不清晰，人物刻画不鲜明，多了很多没用的内容，节奏如果更紧凑会好点。杰克吉伦哈尔的演技还是很OK的。电影里的911系统和紧急呼救里的差别好大。
因为还在追911剧，对这个形式感觉很亲切。吉伦哈尔的脸自带好感度up标签，看到一半都没get到主角的可恨之处。整体非常美国电影，从探讨的问题到最后的HE结局。
三颗星都给老吉，整部电影都是老吉的舞台，表演课很精彩！
杰克演得很卖力，非常吸引人。剧本的素材其实非常不错。从紧急电话接线员的视角解析整个事件。但是剧情发展有好几个致命的弱点：接线员和警方工作的专业素养和程序漏洞非常大、主角的人设平庸、最后揭晓主角背后的故事也少了一份反转的冲击力。是部不错，但是缺乏一口气的电影
吉伦的演技一贯的好，但毕竟是直接翻拍的，且等我看完原版再说
演得越投入，看得越尴尬，可惜了吉伦哈尔先生的演技
凭印象，基本跟原版一样，开头加的森林大火背景也没什么实际作用，剩下就是看老吉的表演，顺道听声认人。
翻拍的不如原版，即使有杰克吉伦哈尔这张脸和卖力表演，也非常不好看，简直就是一个躁郁症的911接线员和一个精神病在电话里刮躁了90分钟，看的脑壳疼…2.5
84/100。在原版的基础上进行了融入美国文化语境的合适嫁接，将这个国家中最见不得光那些黑暗角落有效地插进原本充满悬念性与代入感的故事，将人内心深处积满灰尘的良知放到了光亮下，无情又有情地用罪人的警铃敲响了它尚存的希望。杰克·吉伦哈尔的表演更是为整部电影锦上添花。
电影很无聊，三星全部给演技，老吉一个人hold住全场
因为是翻拍也不太去管剧情了，对于声音这块的设计支撑起独角戏，也不得不说老杰的演出确实不错
Jake Gyllenhaal演技在线，几乎独角戏，撑起了这个难看（很难看下去）的故事。反转不新鲜，但重要的两处都是对的，一个是让男主垮掉，一个则是让男主重新燃起希望从而正视自己的错误。另外两处反转的成立都建立于偏见挺有意思。
无聊得看不下去. 如果我是 dispatcher 碰到这种傻逼女的我可能会挂掉. 😊
打电话求救的妈妈……太好莱坞式疯子女人，同时是妈妈，并且疯了，非常讨厌这一类角色刻画，因为妈妈实际上很少发疯。
确实是低成本电影 景都不带变的 最大成本很可能就cast了 Jake一个人撑一部电影也挺厉害的
？？？看得烦死我了 引人入胜又故弄玄虚 多一颗星给演员
表演并不好，表情都变形成那样了，一滴眼泪都没有，太尬了
还可以，剧情拍的紧凑，就是故事比较老套，全靠吉伦哈尔演技在撑
