About Horror Hotline... Big Head Monster
A reporter and the producer of "Horror Hotline", a popular radio call-in show, investigate a caller's tale about a terrifying mutant infant that caused several deaths in the 1960s and seems to be making people disappear today.
Directed by Soi Cheang, Horror Hotline... Big Head Monster leans on a strong ensemble — Francis Ng Chun-Yu, Josie Ho, Sam Lee — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2001.
