The Call

Movie • 2013 • Thriller  

Report
Jordan Turner is an experienced 911 operator but when she makes an error in judgment and a call ends badly, Jordan is rattled and unsure if she can continue. But when teenager Casey Welson is abducted in the back of a man's car and calls 911, Jordan is the one called upon to use all of her experience, insights and quick thinking to help Casey escape, and not just to save her, but to make sure the man is brought to justice.

We don't see stalking as such, but it's highly likely that the murderer has picked his victims carefully in advance. One is assaulted in her home (the murderer breaks in), the other in a parking garage.

Hard to say. We don't see all-out sexual acts, but the assailant's behaviour is sexually charged. He cuts his constrained victim's blouse open, he caresses her hair and face, and his voice, facial expressions and body language have a creepily intimate "tone". He may have sexually assaulted another person off-camera - we know that he did horrible things to her while she was on a bed, but technically we don't know exactly what those things were.

Not in like a casket or something, but a character is left restrained, helpless, in a structure underground, closed off, under a hidden trap door, left for dead, on purpose.

I wouldn't say "mutilation", but someone's eye swells up badly after an assault, and another person gets sprayed in the eyes with hairspray and rinses his eyes furiously.

No, but ----- SPOILERS ----- someone is kept in a (dentist's) chair and/or an operating table flanked by one or more trays holding surgical instruments. She also gets sedated/anaesthesised by inhalation through a face mask, has a surgery cap on, and is cut into with a scalpel.

It certainly very much looks like it. We're not told that it's cancer, but there's a young person in a hospital bed who's visibly very sick and near-bald (patches of wispy hair), and the person dies. This is all before the events of the movie; we only see pictures.

The operator certainly shows signs, and that she changed to teaching implies she really does have PTSD from an earlier call.

Yes - at least it VERY much looks like it; we don't see any actual sex, and nothing is said about the relationship, but there are very strong indicators that it was incestuous. In any case, one party clearly had and still has twisted feelings for the other. The relationship/feelings may or may not have been consensual/mutual. The relationship is over before the events of the movie.

There is no sexual content. There is evidence of sexual assault of minors and viewers can assume that the murderer intended to sexually assault the minor he kidnapped. Sexual assault is not on screen.

There are guns, but in the hands of police officers and are out while looking the suspect. I don’t remember any gun fire.
