Plot Summary
Director Robert "Freddy Krueger" England dials up a contemporary gothic tale of high-tech horror in 976-Evil. High school underdog Hoax Wilmoth (Stephen Geoffreys, Fright Night), fills up the idle hours in his seedy little hometown fending off the local leather-jacketed thugs, avoiding his overbearing, religious fanatic mother (Sandy Dennis) and dreaming of a date with trailer park temptress Suzie (Lezie Deane). But his quietly desperate life takes a terrifying turn when his cousin, Spike, introduces him to an unusual new hobby - phoning in for his Horrorscope. Because instead of the slightly kinky astrological predictions he's expecting, Hoax is hooked-up with a compellingly hideous demonicforce that slowly begins to overtake his entire life. Now there's more than just a phone bill to pay for anyone and everyone who ever dared cross "the neighborhood nerd".

Call This Number for a good time.
976-Evil is the directing debut from Robert England(Freddy) and its not a bad movie but it's not great either. i would recommend this film if you if your bored.
Still scary, after 20 years!
I saw this when it initially came out. Having been an avid teenage horror movie fan, I think this was one of the most contemporary & original horror movies to date (20 years later.) Most of all, it's actually scary! This came out during the late 80's/early 90's 1-900 craze, which made it more realistic for the time. I think most people who saw it thought twice before dialing those numbers again because not so long after, the whole craze seemed to stop! I was quite (pleasantly) surprised to see that iTunes carries this. However, like 9 out of 10 movies that I'm able to find here, -WHY CAN'T I RENT IT???
LOL
The band "Deftones" named a song after this movie on their album, Diamond Eyes. Anyways, it was a pretty good watch if you're looking for an old-school horror flick directed by Freddy Krueger himself "Robert Englund".
