The adaption of the 2004 short story of the same name by Joe Hill is a scary flick with heart. Directed by Scott Derrickson, The Black Phone is the supernatural horror film starring Ethan Hawke. Finney (Mason Thames), a shy but clever 13-year-old boy, is abducted by a sadistic killer and trapped in a soundproof basement where screaming is of little use. When a disconnected phone on the wall begins to ring, Finney discovers that he can hear the voices of the killer’s previous victims. And they are dead set on making sure that what happened to them doesn’t happen to Finney.
