Last Call is the first interactive horror movie in the world where the audience is able to communicate with the protagonist. A film controlled by a member of the audience, thus blurring the boundaries between game and film. Language recognition software transforms the participant’s answers via mobile phone into specific instructions. A specially developed software then processes these commands and launches an appropriate follow-up scene. The dialogue between the movie’s main actress and an audience member leads to a different film – and outcome – every time: sometimes with a happy end, sometimes with a more gruesome one. To participate in the adventure, audience members submit their mobile phone numbers to a speed dial code when they buy their ticket. The moment the female protagonist takes out her phone to call someone who might be able to help her, the film’s controlling software contacts one of the submitted mobile phone numbers. Once the viewer picks up, he hears the actress’s voice – who tells him she would be lost without him. He has to help her escape by choosing a path through the old, rundown sanatorium. Furthermore, he also decides whether she should help other victims to flee the scene -and every single choice shapes her fate: it’s a matter of life and death. 13th Street Last Call is made by Jung von Matt/Spree (Idea), Film Deluxe (Film), nhb (Sound), Telenet (IVR), AixVox and Powerflasher (Software).

People would fuck with the movie so bad. People will stay stuff like, “Suck his dick!” and shit like that.
cool, isn’t it?
I suppose this would be Visual Novel: The Movie.
OMG !!!
sounds fun
Very cool
Amazing…an algorithmic video game…boorringg…….so there are a few options available per scene based on a fixed set of recognizable commands…meaning…’you can’t get her to show her tits or blow the bad guy’…who cars…idiotic German idea…
this idea + porn mmmmm wow
That is so cool! FUCK, I WANNA TRY!
Stay tuned, will you?
WTF you cant call me bitch, im sitting with my girl friend in a cinema.
I call later back
Wie Geil ;D
Will this ever get released in Australia, UK, America etc? D:
This is just going to encourage people to have cell phones turned on in movie theatres.
This seems cool xD
wish it’d be english version
when will it be in theatre?
@youstolemythoughts wuasdgjhaskdghaskdghakjdgha, nice comment xD!
@youstolemythoughts hahahahaha, or even worse, when a character asks you for walking either to the right or to the left; a “funny” guy from the theater says “BOOM goes the dynamite!”
me too
don’t forget about the return to the house on haunted hill on blue ray which was an interactive movie
+1 for Engrish.
“I’ve got your number now!”
“Call me, baby
“
Cool they are using Nuance software
It is the cinema´s future!!!
“Your turn! I´ve got your number!” Oh! Creepy final! LOL
Somehow I think that the French Quantic dreams studios, Heavy rain is better then this. These are probably only a couple of choices and not a full feature film.
Nice to see studios in the EU working with a deep immersible experiences for a more mature audience.
yeah, but in Kinoautomat you can only chose between two scenes and no matter what scenes you choose the end is always the same. of course, there’s over 40 years between the two films. it’s funny that no one else tried to do that in the meantime. in any case, an interesting concept. I’m curious to see whether it’ll be accepted.
Nice try, 13th Street. The first interactive movie was Kinoautomat in 1967. While your product’s a little bit different, you’re about 40 years too late for that nomenclature.
