| Movie Description 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.

Top Reviews  White Noise 2005 DVDReview created: 06/17/06(updated 11/10/06) by:  57 of 58 people found this review helpful. Michael Keaton tried to portray a widower whose wife dies in an accident. People who are involved in the EVP (Electric Voice Phenomenon) pseudo-science who believe they can use rigged up equipment to allow dead people to contact them start showing up all around Rivers (Keaton). They get him going believing that his wife is contacting them. Then he rapidly becomes as addicted to the EVP beliefs system as them; practically ignoring his motherless little boy. That is the part of the film which bothers me most. Before you know it his whole world centers around making EVP contact with his dead wife and the rest of the dead who are interfering with his desired direct contact with her. The show is dull and unbelievable. The plot isn't interesting either. To be obsessed with the dead while a little boy needs a dad to be with him amongst the living is not my kind of flick. It seems to justify negligence by a father of a child. I call it spookological. But it's not even scary, or a thriller, or a suspense because there is no basic sustaining plot that holds the film together in a meaningful way. So the guy loses his wife and becomes obsessed with her death? What's original about that? What's original about weird hooky spooky side show techniques which pretend to make contact with dead people who are beloved or dangerous? I found it rather morbid, but certainly not thrilling.

I gotta admit watching this movie then going to bed and turning on the baby monitor didn't work well for me. If you like the strange and supernatural then this is a good watch.
