Movie Review: Answer The Call And Watch The Must See Horror ‘The Black Phone’

Like many of you, I’ve been eagerly awaiting to see director Scott Derrickson’s new installment in terror, The Black Phone, which is now out On Demand, VOD, and streaming on Peacock. The Black Phone centers on “Finney Shaw, a shy but clever, bullied, 13-year-old boy 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. Young actor Mason Thames, who stars as Finney, gives performs far beyond his years. He’s incredible at emoting his character’s fear, sadness, and desperation as he faces “The Grabber” and the reality of his situation. He starts as a meek, somewhat pathetic character who evolves into a man of the action thanks to the guidance of the spirits

‘They/Them’ Star Darwin Del Fabro Talks Horror And LBGTQ+ Pride

The LBGTQ+ horror film They/Them is headed your way. Ahead of its premiere, I sat down with actor and musician Darwin del Fabro to discuss not only the film’s horrors but also Darwin’s character, Gabriel, and the importance of LBGTQ+ films. The movie, pronounced “they-slash-them,” is set at a conversion camp, as if that isn’t scary enough, “Several queer and trans campers join Whistler for a week of programming intended to ‘help them find a new sense of freedom.’ As the camp’s methods become increasingly more psychologically unsettling, the campers must work together to protect themselves. Things get even more dangerous when a mysterious killer starts claiming victims.” Written and directed by “Penny Dreadful’s” John Logan, the slasher also stars Kevin Bacon, Anna Chlumsky, Carrie Preston, Theo Germaine, Quei Tann, Austin Crute, and Monique Kim. Kelli: “So did you get your start in theater? I noticed on your website that you’ve had a lot of work in theater, a lot

In the new teaser for the Peacock original LBGTQIA+ horror, They/Them, Kevin Bacon tells his campers that the camp is a safe space, but that couldn’t be further from the truth; a masked killer is on the loose.
