I would have sworn that it was used in Scream, but Google’s not helping me out at all on this.
I had no idea this movie was a remake before this thread. I thought it was just the movie version of a really lame urban legend that I’d read a long time ago. Or maybe it was in a book of “scary stories”, I don’t know.
It seems nowadays every movie is a remake. 
(I did think the remake of The Italian Job with Charlize Theron was good. Though I prefer Michael Caine’s original version. But that’s a topic for another thread.)
I’m a horror buff, but I never really got Black Christmas. It always just seemed like a typical crappy 1970s Canadian flick only with a bit more killing (and less incest).
When a Stranger Calls is but one of a string of (non-Japanese) horrors being remade, most likely spurred by the success of Saw. Another is The Hills Have Eyes, which should be interesting (not that we really need another movie about inbred backwoods yokels killing city folk on vacation), and Eli Roth was in plans to make a new Bad Seed, though I’m not sure if it’s still on.
(all this in addition to The Amityville Horror, The Fog, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre)
As for the famous “…inside the house!” line:
There’s a line that’s in the same spirit as this in the first film. The killer ‘slips up’ and tells Drew Barrymore’s character, over the phone, “I want to know who I’m looking at.”
