I can't call this an unnecessary remake of the 1960 Doris Day/Rex Harrison movie, but it's not bad considering, and it's a nice change of pace to see where is your Mary Crosby as a heroin rather than the villaimess she played on "Dallas". As a troubled Heroes with memories of her late mother, she has constant phone calls from a woman she claims has her mother's voice. Obvious there's more to the story than just her imagination, with support from husband Gary Frank and wealthy aunt Celeste Holm. She's being stalked by several people, and each encounter and spooky phone call gets continuously worse. Crosby is accused of being responsible for a tragic accident and it becomes clear that she may indeed be in dsnger, from herself!

But with a lot of twists and turns coming along, it becomes pretty obvious especially if you're familiar with the original movie as to what's going on, and certain elements that occur between Frank and Holm. Carolyn Jones also figures into the plot as a clairvoyant, always commanding and scene stealing. This is a good thriller for TV that a few years later would be redone over and over with more erotic elements, and the absence of that makes this a lot classier. A perfect film to be remade before cable TV went into many homes as the lack of channels meant that most old movies were relegated to the late show. Still doesn't compare to the original, but there have been many worse remakes done. There are enough differences between this and the original to make it seem like its own film, and Crosby is just fine with Holm an absolute class act in a really well written part.
