Scott Derrickson’s new film The Black Phone was released in theaters last week and it’s proving that it’s horror lover summer. The film, based on a short story by Joe Hill, follows a young boy named Finney (Mason Thames) who’s kidnapped by the Grabber (Ethan Hawke). Thanks for Finney’s psychic abilities, he is able to communicate with the Grabber’s previous victims to find a way to escape the killer’s clutches. Derrickson and frequent collaborator C. Robert Cargill infuse the film with the same terror as they did in their 2012 film Sinister.
