- Excerpt: This weekend audiences can choose between Baz Luhrmann’s unconventional biopic “Elvis” or Ethan Hawke in the well-rafted horror film “The Black Phone.”
- [New] | Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: The Black Phone offers some excellent performances, a great sense of atmosphere and a mostly restrained visual style that works well.
- David “DC” Bolling @ DC’s Take
- Excerpt: The Black Phone is a welcome return for Scott Derrickson and the horror genre with his best film yet. Effective terror through its tense sense of atmosphere and storytelling. Ethan Hawke’s performance is creepily chilling, but Mason Thames and Madeleine McGraw were the true standouts.
- Travis Burgess @ The Sacred Wall
- Excerpt: The Black Phone’ is an effectively frightening horror film…when it sticks to the original short story
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: A pair of plucky siblings elevate the chronicle into (shocker!) an uplifting horror movie.
- Harrison Martin @ Flixfrog
- Excerpt: The Black Phone is visually unsettling and eerie at times, but enjoyable for fans of the horror/thriller genre. Derrickson is more concerned with telling a good story than scaring the audience and it shows in the final product.
