Close Calls
Morgan, a troubled, drug-addled teen, must deal with her crazy grandma and a psycho caller when her father leaves her home alone. As the calls keep coming in, a paranoid Morgan is forced to face some of her worst fears and inner demons when she believes everyone she knows is either plotting against her - or trying to kill her.
Why it matters
A claustrophobic descent into paranoia and fractured reality, Close Calls channels psychological horror through the lens of a vulnerable, unreliable protagonist.
- Raw indie spirit with a strong central performance capturing addiction and mental unraveling.
- Minimalist setting heightens tension — isolation as a breeding ground for terror feels genuinely oppressive.
- Taps into late-’70s and ’80s analog horror vibes, where phone calls are sinister and trust is a luxury.
- For fans of character-driven dread over jump scares, where the real monsters might live inside the mind.
