The rough gem of the Music Box's Midnight Movies series, The Telephone Book is everything you could ask for in cult exploitation: an X-rated, not-so-seamless blend of art-house style and grindhouse subject matter (dominatrices and orgies and Warhol cohorts, oh my!). After Alice gets a call from the perverted "John Smith," she tries to find him in the phone book, then face-to-face. Black Christmas may have cemented "telephone terror" as a modern horror trope, but The Telephone Book is shamelessly trashy and way more fun. Michelle Clifford, co-author of Sleazoid Express, introduces the film.
