The Night Caller

[somersetdc]

No, looked up the film. It was John Carson, who sure sounded and looked a lot like James Mason.

[somersetdc]

Was James Mason in this?! Not one of his finest roles.

John Saxon was 'Roper' in "Enter the Dragon"...

[westlock]

That title music just does not belong in this movie.

[shandelear]

@westlock no it doesn't. it could have been so good and changed the pace of the film.

@TheTomhamilton8

are you sure you don't mean patricia haines (michael caine's ex missus)? she's the main actress in this.

[Phil1stalk]

I got a boner at 11:48 when she sat down on that desk. So I watched the rest of the movie. British women are so haughty-sexy!

[eatmyassclean]

@Phil1stalk Is that Oscar Goldman she sat next to?

[FireWalkWithMe1986]

@eatmyassclean mmmh ass eating, were the fuck is oscar goldman?

[paulmurphy42]

@Phil1stalk I got a hard-on at 49:46. Barbara Stevens was superb, but for some reason she sank without a trace after this film.

[huskyjerk]

@Phil1stalk That's it? All a woman has to do is sit down and they got you by the thumb?

[pretorious700]

You can always tell when a film maker has no practical knowledge of the military. You NEVER take up a firing position in front of or behind your own troops. I see this all of the time in film.

[grendel963]

The creepy gay guy @ 57:00 or so played Alex's parole officer in A Clockwork Orange.

[whiskeyify]

very Interesting Sci-fi film..if you're a Sci-fi fan like me you will like this one.

[gymskirt]

Was there any a reason why the original title music was changed to version?

[ArtJWest]

@gymskirt

The theme was changed or the American market, where they presumably hoped for a hit single.

The original theme was called Image and can be heard elsewhere on youtube if you search for "image theme night caller".

[gymskirt]

thanks!

MARS NEEDS WOMEN!

larry bucanan probably ripped off this bw movie.

[BillFugate]

The guy who plays the Major was the zombie master in "Plague of the Zombies".

[simonmoves]

@BillFugate yea he was young here--perhaps basil had something to do with the story--not a bad picture--they thought on the grounds that michael rennie a british actor did -day the earth stood still and was a smashing success-that they could follow up the theme of suspenseful sci-fis in the uk--works with some degree-

[untaco]

Cool concept and some very interesting parts within the film. I love John Saxton!

[pretorious700]

@untaco Saxon was good early his career, but by the 70's was doing caricatures of himself.

[dirkwestwood]

Nice low budget gem from the talented John Gilling.Director of hammer's"Plague of zombies"and "The reptile",also the entertaining "fury at smuggler's bay".Very well timed,sudden,down-beat ending too.
