Review by thalassafischer

The Killer Is on the Phone is available in a clean, vibrant version with Italian audio which is always a plus. However, though it's low on sleaze (which I wholly approve of) it's also low on action and intensity, leading to a slight dullness.

I appreciated the twists in the mystery which is more of a "why" than a "whom" but you have to really wait for that ending.

I generally delight in spooky atmospheric fare, but this film comes across more like a drama than a Gothic horror, and I did not particularly like the main character which made it difficult for me.

Still, L'assassino...e al telephono is solid and I can't in good faith knock it as a whole.
