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.
