When he is asked "who is Millie? The story tells the story of Joel Brandt ( Mathew Lillard ), a failing screenwriter who is ironical a screen writing professor at a local college. The director, Rob Cowan, only ever shot this one film and for the rest of his career has worked as a producer, so I guess this was a case of him dipping his toes into the water and finding it too cold. A movie that starts off with a mockery of clichés and then goes on to show that it contains each one of them. I ran across this film on netflix and the description pulled me in.

In general, the acting is OK but not great, a little unconvincing at times. This movie is a Canadian thriller starring Matthew Lillard(pictured below). It took a while for her to be discovered, but fans put the pieces together eventually.
When Brandt receives a weird phone call asking for help, he believes that it is a prank of his best friend Adam Brickles (Michael Eklund) and he deletes the message. 34 out of 41 found this helpful.
It's not just a slasher horror, yet an intense mystery thriller that could have twisted in any way, shape or form towards the end.
Twists and turns with a small but good cast, along the way make a good story betterI was pleasantly surprised by this film. Sidney Poitier’s 7 Most Memorable Performances
"Messages Deleted" is a senseless, annoying and absurd thriller about a screenwriter that is informed about murders that are following a screenplay that he had written stolen the idea from another screenplay. Could have been so much better.. This began as a very good idea, revenge on a plagiarist Professor.
I liked his "Maniac Cop" series, "It's Alive", "Phone Booth", and even "The Stuff" and "Uncle Sam", but for every enjoyable script he produces, there seems to be an equally awful follow-up, like "Captivity", or, well, this one. Mocks clichés and then becomes them (intentionally and wittily) and eventually points out clichés are fairly accurate. Who was the real killer all along ??
Rotten Tomatoes, home of the Tomatometer, is the most trusted measurement of quality for Movies & TV. This post has been submitted for our review.Being something of a mark for most things Matthew Lillard, I had run across this on cable scheduling and recorded it ages ago, so I finally sat down with it and gave it a look this afternoon. It kept me intrigued throughout, trying to guess the killer (I was wrong in the end too).

Do not expect the same quality, because "Messages Deleted" has certainly it's flaws. On the more technical side, I found the camera angles annoying and distracting during several scenes at the beginning (as if the camera man is playing around with techniques they've only just picked up), it involves lots of people walking through the shot in front of characters in dialogue and bizarre instruments that automatically stop producing sound when not in shot. Sure I would have liked to know exactly what took place, but it gave me and the people I watched it with something to discuss after wards. Here we have a prime example of true film screen magic where it does not take a hundred plus million dollar budget or an A-list actor/actress in order to entertain.
