    Finney Shaw, 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.

And they are dead set on making sure that what happened to them doesn't happen to Finney.

  14. Review: Thriller 'The Black Phone' is captivating, really

    The movie has a "Stranger Things"-meets-"Room" vibe and even namechecks a film deep in its debt: "Texas Chain Saw Massacre." The film's tagline is "Don't Talk to Strangers" and it's painfully wrong. While applicable to The Grabber, Finn learns that the voices on the other end of the black phone are his previous victims.

  19. The Black Phone

    Movie Review. The phone hangs on the wall, black and dead. Dead as the children who slept there, ate there, were beaten there. Were murdered there. Finney's not the first boy to find himself in this cracked, barren Denver basement in 1978. The man—The Grabber, people call him—prepared the place well. The bed is fastened to the floor.

  20. The Black Phone review: A spooky, surface-level thriller
