My Living Landline


There are no good stalker movies that do not include a creepy phone call, it is a genre convention at this point. The only problem that comes with doing that is that no one in our generation answers a random number. Melina, Sarah, and I were close to scrapping the idea together but then I proposed the idea of a landline. Many people who had landlines would answer random phone calls willy-nilly. But that poses another problem. Who is 2023 actually still uses a landline? Melina’s family. Well, they don’t currently use it, but they kept the phone when they got rid of it. Now to answer that question again but in a different way. No one actually has landlines anymore, so because of this, we have set the timeline of our movie from 2023 to the 2000s when landlines were more common.
