| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about White Noise |
This movie is directed by Geoffrey Sax
Jonathan Rivers is a married day until one day when his wife disappears. A few days later, a man contacts Jonathan and the man says that he is receiving some messages from Jonathan's wife through EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon). EVP is the progress through which the dead communicate with living people through household recording devices.
At first, Jonathan does not believe the man but later he seems to start hearing things himself, that's when he wants to find out what happened to his wife.
--Vadim Akhanov, Resident Scholar
