Buy on iTunes   Buy on Amazon

Oscar® nominee Ethan Hawke, in the most disturbing role of his career, stars in a new psychological thriller from Blumhouse and the director who brought you Sinister and Doctor Strange. Finney, a shy but clever 13-year-old boy, is abducted by a sadistic killer (Hawke) 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.

A great thriller, the set up is a little slow but pays off in the end!

Very good horror/ thriller, good story!!!

I thought this movie was fantastic! It kept me on the edge of my seat the majority of the movie. It was different, which was nice to experience. As usual, Ethan Hawke gave his all in his performance and was so creepy! The child actors were incredible too! Really not sure why this movie got any bad reviews but this is a 10/10 review. If you’re looking for something that’s not just a straight slasher flick with suspense and excitement then this is for you.

This movie was great. People giving it one or two stars are not very educated. The plot was good, kept the thrill and had a good message of keep trying. Don’t give up where others have failed especially in a dire situation, keep trying. I really don’t understand how ppl give this movie less than at least a 4 star. Good movie definitely worth watching.

Great movie! Loved it from beginning to end. Really brought back my love for movies. It’s definitely a must watch!

Quaillo07 2022-09-25
I loved this movie. Ethan Hawk plays an awesome scary guy and the young actors did an excellent job. I was on edge the entire time!

abnow 2022-09-21
Not what I thought it would be, rather strange, I want my my back. 😕😬

The movie keeps you engaged in the many of the character stories with just a few scary jumps. It’s just okay and the 5.99 rent charge is better than paying the extra at the theater. If you’re expecting something scary similar to The Ring, Sinister or the Descent, then don’t bother renting it. This is more like “IT”

Not sure where all the five star ratings came from…it was very underwhelming.

Junbgs22 2022-09-17
My daughter has been in love with this movie since it came out, I’m not a big horror movie person so I didn’t understand why she liked it so much, she said it was the time period and the characters. Especially Vance (?) I don’t know I haven’t seen it but she says he’s really pretty and funny.

My friends and I were screaming with fright at the end! We are all going to have have nightmares. One of the best thriller/horror movies EVER.

Jbogey24 2022-09-16
If your looking for a horror movie this ain’t it. But if you want to see a very good original thriller with a supernatural twist, this is it. Great acting, an original story line, great filming. Found myself totally absorbed in this story. Highly recommend!

Film Fan Family 2022-09-15
Excellent movie. Cast is outstanding. Story is creepy and original. Kudos to everyone involved. Had us on the edge of our seats and screaming. We loved it.

I had high hopes for this movie but I was wrong. This movie was too slow and didn’t make much sense to me. It was pretty repetitive to say the least. It was not scary at all. No jump scares or full out scares. I don’t recommend this movie.

TrickyLickins 2022-09-13
This movie is okay. Not terrible. Not outstanding. Hawke’s characterization felt obvious und uninspired. Rent it for yourself and see.

Clemonsalexandrinus 2022-09-12
Fun movie throughout.

nyctelecaster 2022-09-12
Everytime I see the poster of Ethan Hawke in that groteque mask barring his fangs, I think "...I kind of want to see this!..." then I remember - I already did.

Dragonslayery1B3 2022-09-11
This movie was pretty good start to end, but my opinion it should be a pg-13 rated movie, there’s only a little bit of language and violence throughout; but is still pretty good

lol_memes :3 2022-09-10
I like how the boy smack the grabber

AdmiralSnake 2022-09-10
Solid movie, very enjoyable from beginning to end

willië_wonka 2022-09-07
As a true crime fanatic, this film left me feeling scared and sad at the same time. This is based on a short story, which the film follows but adds so many layers that make it so much more interesting. Ethan Hawk is always the good guy, in this film, he sways with the other team, and when his character comes up, he truly puts goosebumps all over your body. Everyone else is exquisite in their parts, especially the murdered children.

Schilwhops_Jr 2022-09-03
I absolutely love this movie but 20 bucks is so expensive for a movie. I can get one for $5 at a store. Anyways great movie!

aplusjt 2022-09-01
Truly moving

ALLTHE KINGS MEN 2022-08-31
Worth a watch. The film has a lot of character development so, it’s not a fast paced film. But I enjoyed it.

Says30.com 2022-08-30
No back story of why the father was a drunk and the mother was gone. Nothing about why this little girl could have dreams m. What was the point of this lifetime trash movie

mcxtwxstx 2022-08-29
The trailer gave everything away. There is no substance to this film. At all. Waste of time. I want me $25 back for buying this movie. It was a bull poop rip off of Spilt. Nothing more. This lacks that people crave when it comes to a psychological thriller. No explanation of the mask changes nor the “brother” that wasn’t ever there. 2/10 so let because it went to theaters. Trash film. Periodt.

DonkeyMaHonkeyG 2022-08-28
Nothing scary in this movie. Nothing clever. Disappointed really. Bought it so might watch it again.

Sarffster 2022-08-24
Reviews were good so I gave it a shot. I almost stopped watching it as it was getting boring.

Lefty38 2022-08-24
I really enjoyed this movie. Not really a horror movie, but a good thriller/ suspense. Ethan Hawke plays a good villain.

Hulktim 2022-08-23
Just watched this movie. It was different and entertaining a little creepy parts but nothing too serious. Really good watch.

sebcot1 2022-08-21
I saw this movie last week. It is very good and entertaining. Well done.

Mimidoll11 2022-08-19
This movie is literally my favorite movie now. I recommend it.

Felishia03 2022-08-18
I want watching movie The black phone please

Dan from Austin, TX 2022-08-17
So many people complaining that they bought it and were disappointed. Do a free trial for Peacock, watch it there for free, and save your whining because you set the bar too high for a thriller drama. Then you can review it here honestly because you saved money; it was a decent film but not the best I’ve seen from Hawke. Interesting concept but I feel it rushed the final act. Still worth checking out but it’s not buying-worthy IMO.

Jazzee15 2022-08-17
I thought this was a great thriller. Kept me on my toes. Ethan was super creepy throughout the entire movie, and the kid definitely understood his assignment.

H.. P.. 2022-08-16
Not one single scare, very, very weak plot (a million plot holes) ULTRA genaric charcters, very weak acting...overall just ridiculous. Note to self if Blum is involved do not waste your time...no matter how many good "Reviews" there are. T

BamaGirlGing 2022-08-16
Not worth $20 for sure! You can watch it free on Peacock!

Justdanielonline 2022-08-14
It was good not the best however it gave me anxiety when watching it for the first time which I like in a film. People with low reviews just don’t understand the movie.

311tmb 2022-08-13
This movie was really good. It’s not jump in your seats scary but with its own flair it’s scary. Acting was very good. You just waited for the next element to play out. It’s worth the money.

French_Friies101 2022-08-13
It is suspenseful,gory,and well done movie, Ethan Hawke rocked the role of a sadistic killer! And the child actors wow😱that’s a amazing talent to have! Finney has played an amazing role and the ending on how he got revenge amazing! It’s such a creative movie! It’s a bit gory but also the fighting and the creativity with it! I like robin he’s such a supportive friend:) especially the part where he taught finney how to fight it was heart-warming and epic!!! I highly recommend this movie!.

drthorn2017 2022-08-11
This movie, and the descriptions and so-called reviews and $25 price, are, in our very experienced and honest opinion, a total ripoff. We are done relying on reviews of movies in the iTunes store and Rotten Tomato, as they are both unreliable. Hawk is only a minor character in terms of screen time and the plot, a disconnect phone on the wall that rings and lets the victim to be talk to prior victims and …….stupid, stupid, stupid.
