One thing you can be sure about in horror is that if someone makes a promise, they’re going to keep it no matter what. Thus is the conundrum with “The Night Caller.” Originally I thought this would be yet another iteration on the famous urban legend about the babysitter, but alas it ended up being something completely different. And so much more uncomfortable in its premise. Though “The Night Caller” doesn’t have any ghouls of vampires or amazing special effects, it has a shocking ending that will leave audiences uneasy for a good period of time.
The rousing Joanna Keylock plays Tina, a Bohemian young woman who has been purposely left out of her niece’s naming ceremony and she’s crashed the party to ensure that everyone notices her anger and discontent. Even the baby’s father. This sets up a rather classical indie dilemma where family must battle family and “Love and Class” ends up becoming a rather ambitious and admirably compelling little piece of work. Sadly, there is a lot that could use improving with “Love and Class.”
