I have no idea what to expect from The Black Phone (2022), but my excitement is through the roof. I feel like Stefan from SNL when I say, this movie has EVERYTHING. It has a famous actor, it has a creepy mask, it has a Pennywise The Clown but in real human body character, it has supernatural scares and off-the-wall visuals. The Black Phone had buzz on it when its first trailer dropped last year, but now, it has reached a whole new level.
Ethan Hawke is on a ride. He is grabbing the attention of the masses. He is in The Northman (2022)…WHICH I REALLY WANT TO SEE BUT ALL THE THEATERS AROUND ME ARE CLOSED! He is Arthuer Harrow in Moon Knight and is going to be staring in Knives Out 2 later this year. Hawke is having a little bit of renascence and I like it.
The Black Phone is written by Joe Hill…who is the son of Stephen King and Tabitha King. An accredited writer himself, if he has the blend of supernatural and realism like what was in The Outsider on HBO…I am all for it.
Scott Derrickson is the director, and he has a history of making some good horror movies. The Exorcism Of Emily Rose (2005) is a quality flick and Sinister (2012) was legit scary. He got his chance to direct a Marvel movie with Doctor Strange (2016), which was entertaining till the ending. This is his first major release since then, and after The Black Phone, he has three projects in the works.
The Black Phone is released into theaters on June 24, 2022.

NBR stands for the National Board of Review and it was established in 1909. Every year they pick roughly 10 movies that they deem to be the best of the year, and they name one movie of the year. It is a bucket list accomplishment for me to eventually conclude every year’s list in full. […]
