White Noise is a 2005 drama/supernatural thriller film, directed by Geoffrey Sax and produced by Brightlight Pictures. The title refers to electronic voice phenomena (EVP), where voices, which some believe to be from the "other side," can be heard on audio recordings. The film is not related to the postmodern novel White Noise by Don DeLillo.

A sequel entitled White Noise: The Light is being filmed (as of 2006).

[edit] Plot summary

Jonathan Rivers (played by Keaton) is a successful architect, and lives a peaceful life with his wife Anna (played by West), until her unexpected and violent death. Eventually, he is contacted by Raymond Price (played by McNeice), who claims that his son has also died, and that he has recorded messages from Anna through EVP. While Jonathan is initially dismissive, he begins to believe that the recorded voice is indeed that of his wife. He becomes obsessed with trying to contact her himself, despite warnings from a psychic who tries to tell him how the recording can attract other, unwanted entities.
