June 25, 2013
Debuting today on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD with UltraViolet from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment is THE CALL, which stars Academy Award winner Halle Berry (Best Actress, Monster’s Ball, 2001) as a veteran 911 operator who takes a life-altering call from a kidnapped teenage girl played by Academy Award nominee Abigail Breslin (Best Supporting Actress, Little Miss Sunshine, 2006).
When a terrified kidnap victim (Breslin) calls 911 from the trunk of a madman’s car, Jordan (Berry) realizes she must confront a killer from her past to put an end to the serial killer’s haunting rampage. THE CALL also stars Morris Chestnut (Identity Thief, Think Like A Man), Michael Imperioli (The Lovely Bones, TV’s “The Sopranos”), Michael Eklund (TV’s “Alcatraz”) and WWE star David Otunga.
The Blu-ray Combo Pack exclusively features an alternate ending, deleted and extended scenes, Michael Eklund’s Audition Tape, and two all-new featurettes taking viewers behind the scenes for set tours and stunt breakdowns. Both the Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD come with a making-of featurette, as well as commentary by Halle Berry, Abigail Breslin and filmmakers.
