The premise

Teenage friends Kit and Libby make prank phone calls for fun but then find themselves involved in a brutal double murder committed by one of their targets.

Horror Vault's take

What starts as a harmless slumber-party prank — dialing strangers and whispering provocative threats — turns terrifying when two teenage girls unknowingly make contact with someone who has just committed murder. Director William Castle wrings mounting tension from the gap between the girls' innocence and the very real evil on the other end of the line. Joan Crawford lends her trademark intensity to the story's volatile edges, elevating this early proto-slasher beyond a simple cautionary tale. The walls close in fast once the wrong person decides to find out exactly who called.
