Excellent but underrated film

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

A pirate radio station is granting callers their hearts' desires. But as some teenagers find out, be careful what you wish for.One review here says this is a great spoof that captures your interest from the start.Not so much. I don't think this is a parody at all and I found it rather tedious, hard to follow in parts and dull. The setup takes forever and does nothing to further the plot. You're literally 40 minutes into the movie before she makes her wish and by then you have a wish of your own -- that the movie would end. By the time the action starts you have 20 minutes remaining! So you basically sit through an hour plus of nothing for the payoff and the payoff sucks.

I don't know about you, but I'm getting pretty tired of 30-year-olds pretending to be teen aged clichés. And this steaming cinematic extrusion packs in most of Canoga Park's middle-aged bartenders and wait staff into one long, unintentionally hilarious carica-turd of high school archetypes terrorized by...oh who cares? I mean, really, if you can stop laughing at grown adults pretending to be misunderstood adolescents, you'd be bored by the plodding mash-up of the Wishmaster, When a Stranger Calls, and a plethora of cursed-media movies (like The Ring). Seems the producers spent their entire budget on by-the-numbers post- production effects you've seen a million times before, and stock sound effects.In the end, it's an unintentionally entertaining wad of poor acting and amateurish direction, wrapping disconnected plot ideas and an obtuse sense of contemporary dialog. If you're as high as the producers who green-lit this thing, then this is the movie for you. Just try not to wonder how "high school students" have male pattern baldness.

Angelica, upset that she's grounded and can't hook up with this one boy at a party that night is sulking. That is until her catty "best friend" sends pics to her cell phone showing the boy being unfaithful. She takes it upon herself to call a ominous radio show where she vents and wishes certain people would leave her alone, little realizing the dire consequences that she has set in motion.It all boils down to merely another light-weight 'teen scream' flick with practically no scares, hammy over-acting and clichés galore. Of course with that said, for its sub-genre and my more or less general disdain for teeny-bopper 'horror', I didn't find it absolutely awful. Yes that's the most positive thing that you'll get out of me in regards to this movie.

Highly entertaining. This is probably the best horror spoof i've ever seen, it hits every cliché right on the head, perfectly. It's funny, i mean, seriously funny, from the intentionally poorly acted scenes of the innocent daughter and controlling over protective parents, to the bitchy backstabbing friend. The Open Door is good solid fun right from the start. The imagery used in some of the jump scares, not only did their job in making me jump out of my seat, but had me laughing my ass off after i realized what i just freaked out over (watch out for a mannequin head turn transsexual). This would be a great movie to watch with some friends over many a beer! It never stoops into the outright silliness of Scary movie, it actually takes on a silent seriousness to it, and strangely, somehow, keeps you invested in the lead character.This film is just fun from start to finish. Rent it now!
