With The Black Phone 2 in theatres this weekend, Aaron, Andrew, & Johnald REUNITE for The Black Phone Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Breakdown, & Spoiler Review!
From director Scott Derrickson (Sinister, Doctor Strange) and based on the chilling short story by Joe Hill, The Black Phone (2021) is a modern horror hit that blends supernatural terror with raw emotional storytelling. Set in 1978, the film follows Finney Blake (Mason Thames – For All Mankind, Walker), a shy 13-year-old boy kidnapped by the sadistic Grabber, played by Ethan Hawke (Training Day, Moon Knight).
Locked in a soundproof basement, Finney discovers a disconnected black rotary phone that mysteriously allows him to communicate with the voices of the Grabber’s previous victims. With the help of his tough and determined sister Gwen (Madeleine McGraw – Toy Story 4, The Harbinger), Finney must gather the strength to fight back and escape. Known for its terrifying atmosphere, the Grabber’s unforgettable mask designed by Tom Savini, and the heart-pounding showdown in the film’s climax, The Black Phone quickly became one of Blumhouse’s most acclaimed horror releases. Also featuring Jeremy Davies (Justified, Lost) as Terrence Blake and E. Roger Mitchell (The Walking Dead, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire) as Detective Wright. In this reaction & review, Aaron Alexander, Andrew Gordon & John Humphrey dive into the Director’s Cut of The Black Phone and also discuss the theatrical ending, comparing how the alternate edits change the tension and legacy of the story.
