A typical example of a low grade indie horror film, WHEN THE OLD PHONE RINGS is about a group of fraternity house students who have to relocate to a crumbling old mansion plagued by prank calls. The comedy attempts here are woeful and to my mind there's nothing worse than watching bad actors delivering unfunny lines. The story is a non-starter with the only horror content in the last 20 minutes, and the only good thing is the atmospheric setting.
