    New BLACK PHONE trailer released

    The movie just looks amazing..

    From popular decriptions:

    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. When a disconnected phone on the wall begins to ring, Finney discovers that he can hear the voices of the killer’s previous victims. And they are dead set on making sure that what happened to them doesn’t happen to Finney.

    Directed by Scott Derrickson, who is no stranger to horror having helmed 2005’s  The Exorcism of Emily Rose and 2012’s Sinister, the film is co-written by Derrickson alongside C. Robert Cargill (who worked with Derrickson on Doctor Strange, and the Sinister franchise), and is based on the award-winning short story by Joe Hill from his New York Times bestseller 20th Century Ghosts.

    Universal Pictures unveiled a packed trailer for its upcoming Blumhouse horror thriller “The Black Phone” this past week, during a presentation to the annual convention of movie theater owners in Las Vegas.

    Reuniting Ethan Hawke with his “Sinister” writer-director Scott Derrickson, the project is adapted from a short story by Joe Hill. Hawke delivers a bone-chilling performance as an unnamed villain, a character he said breaks with his “no bad guys” rule while introducing the clip.

    “The Black Phone” follows an abducted boy “locked in a basement that’s stained with the blood of half a dozen other murdered children. In the cellar with him is an antique telephone, long since disconnected, but which rings at night with calls from the dead,” according to a synopsis of the short. So we’re already having fun.
