). It isn’t long before someone is hurt, though, and the police are called, raising the stakes and the number of ways Stu could die.
Colin Farrell does a fantastic job here, starting out in control, smooth, and confident, but progressively sweating, getting grimy, and breaking down. It’s a one-man play, in some ways, unraveling like a Greek tragedy. The unseen presence forces him to go through a religious experience with a higher power — or at least a high-caliber rifle.
There was another ending, originally. A more traditional one where The Caller completes his task but dies at the end. Schumacher considered his ending perfect, however, and even supposed he might garner some hate for the lack of consequences befalling the villain. Speaking of alternate material, there is also a deleted scene where Jared Leto plays one of Stu’s clients, which is often added back in when the film is shown on television to help balance out the short runtime.
