WHAT IF YOU COULD INFLUENCE THE FILM

Andsticking wit the movie themed blog posts, what if you could influence the person on screen? That’s what the folks behind Last Call are aiming to do with their interactive horror film. Audience members will be asked to supply their cell numbers before the movie, and at one point, a phone number is selected at random from the list, and will be called. Voice recognition software will then listen to the person’s commands and the story will unfold based on their instructions. Of course, instructions will most likely be the usual things like “run, stay, turn right” or something along those lines.  It’s a cool concept, and will be interesting to see how it’s implemented. What would happen if the person left his phone on silent, and didn’t pick up, though?  Or if you don't have a cell phone like me. Can I give them my beeper number and call back from the pay phone in the lobby?
