Synopsis

In the 1920s, Thomas Edison speculated that a device would be created which would allow humans to conduct conversations with the dead. In the 1970s, Sarah Estep picked up some mysterious voices on her husband's reel-to-reel tape recorder, and set up the American Association of Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP) to help track the phenomenon. In 2005, following a welter of evidence gathered by Estep and others, EVP forms the backbone for director Geoffrey Sax's shocking feature film WHITE NOISE. Architect Jonathan Rivers (Michael Keaton) has little time to mourn the passing of his wife Anna (Chandra West) when he starts receiving signals from her. A faint sound of her voice is caught by Rivers in radio static on the night of her death, followed by incessant cell phone calls coming from Anna's old number. Rivers is convinced he can hear Anna's voice saying 'go, Jon' to him in the resulting calls. With a little help from expert EVP practitioner Raymond Price (Ian McNeice), Rivers contacts Anna and begins a hazy dialect with her. From the garbled dialogue Rivers receives, he deduces that Anna is sending him to save the lives of people who are about to die. This joins Rivers, in his plight, with a former client of Price's, Sarah Tate (Deborah Kara Unger). However, meddling with messages from the dead leads the pair into a world of trouble, producing some startlingly anxious moments, and a spine-chilling forewarning of the possible consequences facing real-life users of EVP.

3.0 out of 5 stars Potential Not Realised, 17 May 2005
By A Customer
This film starts off looking really promising, the scene is well set and the concept is great.

Basically without giving too much away, the main character played by Michael Keaton of Batman fame, discovers that a loved one is trying to contact him from the dead using various forms of electronic equipment, radio, tv, computer etc.

If i tell you more i'll ruin the story but as it progresses the film really starts to unfold and will certainly make you jump! The problem i felt was that the full potential wasn't realised and so much more could have been done with the story.

It relied a bit too much on scare tactics an FX and less on a really gritty story line, then at the end it seemed as though the writer/director was either bored or didn't know how to end it.

All in all it's a pretty enjoyable film but not one i'd buy or watch over and over.

4.0 out of 5 stars Spooky and one that makes you think..., 12 April 2005
By Sian Louise (UNITED KINGDOM) - See all my reviews
  
Well I went to the cinema to see this, and i am a HUGE fan of horror/spooky films. And this definately does the trick in scaring the live out of you on a few occasions (im not one to scare easy either). Micheal Keaton did a fantastic job in this film and the whole film once its finished makes you think and trust me you will never think of static on ur television, in quite the same way. A MUST WATCH film as the storyline is good, the actors/actresses are good and you wont be disappointed in this.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Creepy Surprise, 4 Jan 2006
By Green Man Music "green-man-music" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I put off buying this DVD for a while because it starred Michael Keaton and I assumed it would be another Hollywood churn-out. But infact, Although Keaton's acting still doesn't do it for me, the film was much creepier than I expected and I enjoyed it, whilst ignoring the fact that this could be another Americanesque warning not to dabble in the occult hidden in the form of a horror movie. It's a 3.5 stars really but as I enjoyed watching it I leaned to the 4!

The overall story is of a man who turns to Electronic Voice Phenomenon research in an attempt to contact his dead wife, but slowly discovers that the 'other side' is also a source of nastier messages from less than savoury characters passed-over. As some messages from his wife appear to predict imminent tragedies and he goes on their trail, he gets drawn gradually further into a more dangerous world vaguely glimpsed through the white noise or 'interference' of a TV screen.

There are clear shades of "The Mothman Prophecies" here, and whilst I believe that "Mothman" is a better film all round, I would still recommend "White Noise" to anyone who enjoyed that, as the two films have similar premises and a similar style of slow, creepy atmosphere.
