Blumhouse Productions, the ultra-lucrative production company behind Paranormal Activity Where The Purge, will come back with some equally interesting projects. Spawn will be reborn under the leadership of Jason blum just like an expected film adapted from the game Five Night at Freddy’s which will also arrive on our screens in a few months (even years) given the departure of its main director. The production house will soon return with the feature film Black Phone, by the director Scott Derrickson.
Released on September 25, 2021 to Fantastic Fest, the film received an extremely positive initial reception. It will not officially arrive at the cinema until the February 4, 2022. Based on a 2004 short story of the same name by the writer Joe hill, The Black Phone tells the story of a series of kidnappings in a Colorado town in the 1970s. A serial killer known as The Grabber (Hawke) kidnap the young Finney Shaw. Just when all hope seems lost Finney discovers a chance to escape through mysterious and supernatural means.
The film benefits from fairly effective first images with an anxiety-provoking atmosphere that projects a great deal of Blumhouse as well as a promising appearance by the actor Ethan Hawke in The Grabber.
