The Black Phone

We interrupt our regularly scheduled Summerween programming to bring you a chilling discussion of Scott Derrickson’s latest release, The Black Phone. Our boy has done it again with one of the most unsettling, emotionally gripping, and terrifyingly realistic horror movies we’ve ever seen. Truly astounding performances from Mason Thames, Madeleine McGraw, and Ethan Hawke, combined with a remarkable restraint that is rarely seen in contemporary horror, made this a cinematic experience that’s hard to shake. This movie feels like Saw and Stranger Things had a weird true crime baby. Go see it immediately. It's in theaters right now and available to rent digitally this Friday!
