CHICAGO – In the last several years, the horror genre has become hot because of its return on investment. The strategy is to market the hell out of the scare factor, get a good opening weekend (which usually takes care of the filming costs several times over) and make sure the blood spatters well. There is no need for pricey star power because the “star” is always the quality kills.
While “The Signal” has an abundance of them, it’s not for the usual reasons.
The film opens with a woman named Mya (Anessa Ramsey) having an extramarital tryst with Ben (Justin Welborn). She’s late getting back to her husband and doesn’t notice the strange, random noise and light blobs coming from Ben’s bedroom TV screen.
