When a stranger calls (1979).The best part of that movie was the calls are coming from inside the house bit at the beginning.

I was going to say the same thing! I've never seen it, but I assume the short movie it was based on actually WAS better.

Just looked it up and your right.The opening of the movie was based on a short film the director had done 2 years earlier called the Sitter.I went to Youtube to check it out but unfortunately it's not there.

It was all downhill after that mesmerizing opening.

I loved the full length Talk Radio!

I would say Rogue One could have been a good short. The feature was exhausting to say the least. Not great.
