Ethan Hawke is no stranger to horror movies, from The Purge to Sinister, and now he's brought his A-game for another terrifying movie, The Black Phone. Directed by Scott Derrickson (Doctor Strange), this movie is an adaptation of a short story written by Joe Hill. Derrickson co-wrote the adapted screenplay with C. Robert Cargill (Sinister) and the two of them produced the film alongside Jason Blum.
The Black Phone is set in 1978, where a young boy named Finney (Mason Thames) is kidnapped by a serial child abductor known as "The Grabber" (Hawke). He's held captive in a basement that has a black phone hanging on the wall, but it is disconnected. The phone rings and Finney answers it, only to discover that the voices on the other side of the line belong to the Grabber's previous victims. They each try to help him survive by giving him warnings and advice on how to defend himself and escape.
