Domande frequenti

Already at the time of its Theatrical release in the early 80ies the movie "Don't Answer the Phone" had to face a lot of criticism. Critics complained about the very upfront display and mixture of sex and violence which was almost limited to female victims. Even though it can be understood that several guardians of public morals said the movie was misogynic but this is a botch of a more simple way and definitely not intending to give any social statements. It simply wants to entertain its audience and tries that with the help of sleazy material, such as many other exploitation movies of this era. The first digital home video incarnation from "Rhino Home Video" seems to be based on a heavily censored TV-master which did not only take away a lot of violence and nudity from the movie but also took care of bad words. Earlier American video releases had remained untouched. Still, this version got an R-Rating from the MPAA. Not until the year of 2006 the label "BCI Eclipse" released the movie in its Theatrical version which, as can be seen in die end credits, also got an R-Rating from the MPAA back in 1980 (the DVD, however, remains Unrated).
