Hey guys, you may have seen my movie If He Hollers(http://www.studentfilms.com/film/get.do?id=1019) I was so shocked when I saw the trailer for When A Stranger Calls cuz i realized I used the same babysitter urban legend! I never knew about When A Stranger Calls, so I just wanted to say please if you review my movie dont complain that its a rip-off of When A Stranger Calls because I didn't know, I just heard that legend and thought it'd be a fun movie but turns out so did other people lol ..

that movie probably isnt even out in theatres yet, we know theres at least a months wait to have ur film posted, so theres not likely to be any problem of ppl accusing u of ripping something off, but even if they do accuse that, who cares, they should be focused on what you've done, not what other ppl do. i think the main annoyance is when we get the same WW2/Vietnam movies over and over again etc.

The movie in question is a remake of a movie from the 1970s of the same name...I'm not going to criticize you for ripping off When a Stranger Calls...I'd be much more inclined to criticize you for using a trite urban legend as the plot of your movie....

ooh... burrrrn.

it happens. About two years ago, I concieved a story about two urban legends, one being the hitch hiker who kills the people who pick him up, and the other is the driver who kills the hitch hiker he picks up. it turns out that the one picks up the other. unfortunately, Masters of Horror also felt the same way and made almost that exact same story :-/
