The Grabber is reaching out again to his previous victims this month.
Universal Pictures and Blumhouse are bringing BLACK PHONE 2 to theaters October 17. Once again directed by Scott Derrickson and scripted by Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill, based on Joe Hill’s short story “The Black Phone,” it features returning stars Ethan Hawke, Mason Thames, Madeleine McGraw, Miguel Mora and Jeremy Davies, along with Demián Bichir, Arianna Rivas, Maev Beaty and Graham Abbey. According to the official synopsis, “Hawke returns to the most sinister role of his career as The Grabber seeks vengeance on Finn [Thames] from beyond the grave by menacing Finn’s younger sister, Gwen [McGraw]. As Finn, now 17, struggles with life after his captivity, the headstrong 15-year-old Gwen begins receiving calls in her dreams from the black phone and seeing disturbing visions of three boys being stalked at a winter camp known as Alpine Lake. Determined to solve the mystery and end the torment for both her and her brother, Gwen persuades Finn to visit the camp during a winter storm. There, she uncovers a shattering intersection between The Grabber and her own family’s history. Together, she and Finn must confront a killer who has grown more powerful in death and more significant to them than either could imagine.”
