I have so much love and respect for Scott Derrickson’s work. This is looking to be his best yet.

@HT TH it's Hollywood black magic

I like Blumhouse and I like Ethan Hawke. Gonna have to put this one on the list.

@LeakBit Its not a movie. But they are revealing things that need to be shared with many people as possible since the western civilization is entering into an abyss and will soon collapse.

@HT TH is this a movie?

🧢 👈

Usually when they give away the movie like this there’s a huge twist. And Ethan Hawke doesn’t usually do a crappy script

@bobby jones you're confused this is not predestination

We seen this plot a dozen times the girl is already dead

@Andromeda Galaxy lol I love this response.

@bobby jones do you know this from watching the movie's pre-screening or are you just speculating?

FACTS!! Ethans Record. is pretty flawless.

Something about this is touching. The scene where the boy is practicing hitting with the phone and the ghost is there with him was pretty cool, but for some reason the idea that these kids were there to walk him through and help him succeed where they failed really hit hard. It was like they were his guardian angels.

Yea , that was a bit unsettling

@Alexey Belikov lmao I imagine them playing verbal games

@𝐁𝐥𝐪𝐞𝐊𝐞𝐧 they'd be bored af with literally nothing else to do and no new apprentices to talk to

@Leandre that is unless they read the book first before seeing the movie. Seriously the guy that wrote the book is Stephen King's son, Joe Hill. So this movie is going to feel like his dad's books that were made into movies, but with a vibe of Stranger Things.

@Lisette Garcia hahah, yeah, at this point, we will be spoiling it for whoever wants to read it.

I feel like the trailer wants us to believe this is the entire movie… but something tells me there’s going to be so much more.

@hen ko just like the girl out of the movie ELI on netflix, exact same situation

I hope so, I really do hope so.

The child is a depiction of himself as a child and the ghosts are simply his paranoid fear. I'm getting a Maniac kind of vibe. This is my thoughts.

I hope you are right

The reviews say the trailers don’t reveal all that much

This look hard 🔥🔥

@Jeff 🤣🤣🤣🤣

that's what she said

Finally, a *phone* in *horror* that actually *helps* you, rather than *fucks* you over for once.📞🙏

🤣🤣🤣

Phones rock!!

lmaooo underrated comment

@FREDDICE tai lung reference 😆👍.

@Martin Turon love that movie and the song

Hawke is everything! "Yes sir... I am a part-time magician". The way he said those lines is GOLD!!!

@Ethan Hawke 😂😂 Why did you divorce Uma Thurman? LOL

Thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

FINALLY they made an original creatively different movie that isn't a remake

@Der Comicladen no way

Heriditary is super boring.

Hereditary still the best

It actually is a remake. Sure, from a book, but still - no own story here :)

This is an adaptation of The Black House by Joe Hill, Stephen King's son. 🥰

Dude this gives me chills, this seems like it has such a good story

This actually looks like a really good thriller. I just hope I’m not wrong

And you actually Hot🔥 👥A simp signing up to your heart ..

This trailer saved me 10 bucks. It was like a free movie.

A good horror movie would be a realistic Herbert from Family guy

🤣

Where do u live movie theaters are 10bucks still a movie with my daughter a med popcorn a large soda and one box of m&ms is 95-100bucks

https://youtu.be/5nUXtpjXI0w

Where do you live that a movie is 10$ lol here in New York it’s 20$ a ticket by the time u buy snacks and a drink u spent 80$ seriously lol

Very interesting plot with a twist~ Tragic yet refreshing and creative to have the victims helped the kid through the ordeal.

@Ethan Hawke fake

I believe this is the first time Ethan Hawke is playing a horror villain and wow, he went all the way for it. I think he's gonna kill it. I'm really excited for him.

Thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

This is for sure going to be a movie I both cry and feel super creeped out at the same time. I love scary movies, but anything with kids is a gut-wrencher for sure!

Hello there. Thank-you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

Ethan Hawke is freaking amazing!! He can play any role and can stand up with the best. He is the best!

Ethan Hawks is easily one of the most consistent actors working today hes got range and almost always chooses great scripts and I feel like he generally doesn’t get a enough credit. His performance in First Reformed is one of the most convincing of the last decade imo

He's one of my heroes, Hollywood doesn't deserve him

@TheHailstorm77 not the same guy.....

@Jorge Roman this but un-ironically. All those actors are trash except Pitt

@Ali B you don’t know that song? Someday, when my life has past me by, I wait a little and wonder why you will always be there for me.

@TheHailstorm77 you're joking right? 🤣

I'm psyched! This type of story seems new, refreshing and phenomenal!

Ethan hawk deserves an Oscar for this movie, he is truly scary in this film!

Ethan Hawke is one of the great classic actors - cant wait to see how he tackles the evil character role!

Oh MAN I really hope that it’s as good as the trailer and that the trailer wasn’t just the entire film. I’m always excited when they have a FRESH idea. Blumhouse is still a name I look forward to seeing.

Decent movie for a three minute runtime. Apparently there'll be an extended version in cinemas, too. Not sure what else they could add, though.

100% agree.

@LinkLich for reals LOLs

Boss fucking comment of all time

@Peter Whitey experience shows that today the whole essence of the film is placed in a trailer, and films are stretched out only with empty dialogues

@F Kiran kiran lol yea!

God I love the Grabbers laugh. Ethan Hawkes wild side is truly gonna be to die for.🙏🎩

Really just goes to show, just how underrated the grand Ethan Hawke is really.🎩

Bet they’ll have an all in black Universal Studio’s opening logo for this particular masterpiece.🌎🖤🎩

Ethan Hawke as a sadistic serial killer sounds quite interesting, I'll definitely give this a watch

Blumhouse + Ethan Hawke + Me wanting to see a magic trick = I'm sold

Did you seriously forgot Scott Derrickson?

@Strider 4life Oh and by the way, the suit? It wasn't cheap. You outta know, _you_ bought it...

The only thing the trailer didn't show was the damn magic trick. So there's that to watch the movie for. 😏

@Nikolai TADAA!! Now it’s gone.

I was going to say the exact same thing except add that I dream stuff like the little girl but usually before it happens. I'm sold!

For once he chose the one kid, that would actually be able to escape for once.

Looks great. A horror movie with solid sounding story, good characters and suspense. What a novel idea.

I can't wait to see this movie! It was literally filmed in my back yard and in my neighborhood

This actually looks good, never heard of it until now

Got some IT chapter 1 vibes from the trailer although it also reminded me of Split 🤷‍♂️

Both of those movies suck so let's hope it's not too much like them

Since we are talking about kids and weirdos, I think The Visit was great too.

@Jose Martinez I love that TV series

Exactly what I thought ⊙﹏⊙∥

What about sinister

this looks really good! glad to finally see some horror that's not remakes

@dakota page well I'm sure that has its creative side too.. I'm not always here online but i want us to keep in contact because I find you to be very interesting and cheerful and smart too. Please do send me a direct message, my address is on my profile. Have a great day.

@Ethan Hawke not in the slightest. lol i just work a normal everyday factory job.

@dakota page yes hopefully the Northman should be out in April if everything goes as planned. Does your job involve creative art like mine?

@Ethan Hawke I'm also very excited for The Northman. I'm from America!

@dakota page that's lovely. I'm pleased to know I have really impressed you with "the before trilogy", "Sinister" and "Training day". It's always a wonderful feeling for me when I get positive reviews from my fans and admirers of my works. Where are you from?

I really like Ethan haWke's work. If he is in a movie , it' s a good one.

I like trailers that show you the entire movie like this. real time-saver.

Read this book recently, I’m curious to see if they’ll go with the actual ending, or come up with their own

This looks like a pretty interesting movie. It's a shame the trailer gave away too much.

@cockandballer It’s not to late to delete this by the way.

@Cytromancer 16 Better Watch Out did the same thing

@Dennis Devlin when did they bring race into it?

Damn sucks you watched the movie since it’s a 3 minute movie apparently lol

I thought the same thing.

Thanks again, Hollywood, for showing the movie in less than three minutes! Saves time and money!

2:04- *“HANG UP THE PHONE, NOW!!!”* I would’ve died in that situation…laughing my ass off that is tbh. Then again, I’m gonna die in that shit hole of a house anyways, with the way I am and everything.😂🤣🤣🤣

A fresh take where rather than the typical Haunting Ghosts getting revenge on the murderer by random jumpscares or quick scary moment on them, the Ghosts helps out another living victim by teaching and showing them what they need to do to survive. At least, according to my opinion of course.

Blumhouse never disappoints 👌🏾👏👏👏

This trailer showed basically the whole film. Bravo!

and got 21 million views for it, marketing wise it's worth it

THEY DID IT. YAY! We just posted a video ranking horror movie franchises... please check it out on our channel when you can. Thank you!

Simply deal with it.

What’s it about then batjkock?

Whk is know this look like tamil movie crime thriller #Ratchsan😍

Was just at the theatre and seen the picture on the wall for this movie, just knew I had to check out the trailer. This looks so interesting I may have to get past being easily scared by horror movies so that I can watch this one.

I just saw it. It was great! It was only 2:56 but man was it great.

I really like the streamlined process of showing the whole movie in the trailer. Speed run cinema

This honestly looks really good!

Ohh, thanks for the short movie. It surely have a great plot and it thrilled me. I am looking forward to it's part two

This is like *”IT”* but from a much more realistic and even rather complex perspective.

This trailer showed basically the whole film. Bravo!

@Dragon Thunder yep dude this kind of imaginary stuff only scare child or people who grew just physically. The most horrific films are the ones who doesn't need involve any paranormal or extraterrestrial stuff. It's the expression or the actors and our connection with them that makes us horrified. Director should establish connection of the character with the most normal person like we are , we should feel like seeing ourselves when we see the char, but this films make them so irrelevant like Back of the mind we always know this all is just bs. Real event based on real peoples life's told in manner in which we all feel connected with them and can easily put ourselves in same situation are absolutely way more scary and ofcourse it doesn't even have to be extremely over the top dangerous like this movies. Real horror is death, people think it's the ghost or psycho killers but it's actually our minds confronting the death! ✌️

@TragicOn DaBeat real horror isn't subjective like your western ideological mess. Real horror is simply death staring at you right in the eyes! You don't need to have paranormal or extraterrestrial to show the horror, Humans to other human is probably the most horrific creature ✌️

@DMB this movie looks scarier and more anxiety producing.

@DMB agree, the kids being helpers and seeing them made it less scary and dark

With Ethan hawke being in this movie you know it should be at least halfway decent ❤️ but I'm looking forward to watching it ❤️

Hello there. Thank-you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

I can't wait to see this movie in June 😍 this will be a summer banger, Ethan Hawke is an astonishing actor, he really produce one of the best horrfying movies of all time Sinister, The Black Phone will be something special and horrfying ☎️😈😍

All my goosebumps were used on this trailer

Ethan Hawke is the most underrated gem of all times 😍

This trailer feels like it’s 3 hours long.

@SPC FL what happens in this movie. Describe without googling 😂

@classof2010president cool so what’s it about

LOL!

it's like it trailer

@Joliemon unfortunately those movies sucked. So they got the trailers right but..

Great short film, thanks. Can't wait to see the directors cut in the theater.

I'm genuinely excited for this film.

Great movie !! Highly recommended🤘👏👏

That was a cool movie. Surprised they streamed it for free 🤘

This looks really good

Yes it's very nice

Nice

@Gus Lopez Or maybe the movie itself looks good, I know it’s hard to understand

So you call evil good ha???

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mZilw16J38s

Love it so excited to see it

The step back and swing was my favorite part

That was a wonderful movie and I saw it all in 2 minutes and 56 seconds … yay!

Well we all just watched the movie without even having to wait for it to come out

Looks genuinely creepy, however Blumhouse has to stop showing the whole freaking movie in the trailers!

https://youtu.be/5nUXtpjXI0w

The thing is most of these aren’t going to be in the actual movie

Okay then, explain every plot detail of the movie, every single thing that happens. Why not see the actual movie when it comes out instead of complaining about the trailer? I don’t mean to start an argument but I’m just saying who cares if the trailer is bad if the movie may be good.

Y’all are so annoying with these stupid ass comments. Just watch the movie first.

Omm

I just wanted to take a moment outta my day to just say, how much I fucking love the great, *Universal Pictures,* and above all, thanking them for bringing us these great film’s, during these difficult time’s is all. 🌎🙏

i mean they literally just showed me the whole movie, but it still looks good. I'm Def watching this

Looking forward to seeing this one!

Even if there is a twist at the end, there's no way I'm gonna watch a full length version of this trailer just to see the end.

This looks really fucking good- i havent been excited for a horror like film in ages

It definitely feels like the IT story, with a bit of normalcy in the villain

@Nora nobody cares

It feels that way because it’s a story a little bit like it honestly and to be honest with you if you read the original story the short story he actually was a clown he was not a musician I believe it’s a great short story you should read it amazing I feel like that with every like horror novel they give you that kind of feel like oh Stephen King must’ve wrote this but now it actually wasn’t even Stephen King wrote it

@Gabrielle Nice. Thanks for the recommendation. I'll have to check it out! And yeah, if it's anything like reading the The Black Phone it's probably very short lol

P.Do Hawke: The Roguelike Puzzler

Squid games is better :)

Este tráiler es realmente muy bueno

Thanks for showing the whole movie! Thanks for spoiling the suspense moments! I honestly think that modern trailers should be avoided, I feel like they did their best to spoil as much as possible in as little time as possible.

This looks amazing. Big fan of Blumhouse films.

Best 3 minute movie 🎥 ive ever seen!!!!! All it needs now is a 5 second trailer. 😂🤣😂🤣

Hello there. Thank you very much for your lovely words, hilarious I really do appreciate. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

Ethan Hawke is a seriously underrated actor. Sinister was one of his best performances and an overall heart/gut wrenching scary movie. I hope this one doesn’t disappoint and hopefully will have a positive impact on the horror genre

I recommend Midsommar if yall haven't seen it yet.

@JOHNNY'S KOMBAT TALK & NEWS. Sinister was excellent, could not get on with Hereditary through.

@Potato Pastry A truly Excellent Film.

@JK B have you watched Better Watch Out? That one is so underrated

Sinister was the balls.

I can’t wait 😍

IT (2017) and Stranger Things all at once. I love it.

Hello there, thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

If they made the trailer any longer we might’ve seen the credits….

I like Ethan Hawke in these type of roles man.. sinister was a masterpiece in my opinion.

They literally showed the whole movie in almost 3 mins.

No they didn't

@B to the Rian It's based on a short story, and I'm not sure how much they stuck to the plot of it with the script

Should now judge this quick The results might be different than we think at the end So dont go so quick

@XTREME you must be old AF to remember all those trailers

Hope not but I bet ya right . All movies held back have been let downs hope this is not 1 of them

That's nice that they showed the entire movie in one trailer.

Fr

This was an exciting movie, can't wait to see the trailer 😀 😕

i can’t tell you how bad i wanna watch this movie 😭

Hello there. Thank-you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

The creepy pasta this is based on is rad, good thing I just saw the whole movie in the trailer lol.

Looks like a really good movie but dang yall giving so much away in the trailer... please stop doing that!

Please stop assuming that they're giving away too much in the trailer. They usually are not, but people just assume it, without having seen the movie.

agree

Theres way too much evil in this ugly world ! HalleluYAH ! This movies stinks.

I thought the Last night in shoho trailer did the same thing but it turned out to be the complete opposite of what the actual movie was. Maybe it’s the same for this🤷‍♀️

Agreed! We just posted a video ranking horror movie franchises... please check it out on our channel when you can. Thank you!

Serious Sinister vibes going on here. The tree, that house, the mask, the dead kids...looks like it's from the same universe. Same director and actor too. Super excited!

Literally the part it could have ended with was him first meeting the guy cuts to him in the dudes basement, guy tells him phone doesn’t work next scene phone process to ring Cut to scene of the girl saying about black balloons to police Cut to scene where he’s chasing the boy And would you look at that you’ve got a trailer that’s pretty spoiler free in my opinion

Scott Derrickson is so good at horror. Ethan Hawke is a great actor . This is a win already!

This is that kind of trailer where the moment you watched it. *YOU ALREADY KNOW THE ENTIRE PLOT from start to FINISH*

It was looking pretty cool. I thought the dead kids speaking to him was a big spoiler, but then it it got even bigger when the trailer walked us through the escape plan.

obviously there is way more to the movie then is shown in the trailers or they wouldn't show it, sheeesh

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Huge spoiler😫

thank you! just thank you!

I don’t understand why they feel the need to show the best parts of the movie, like don’t give it all away. Sheesh.

The movie is like IT (2017) and Stranger Things together. Plus the movie is based on a book by the son of Stephen King, so you might feel some IT moments.

I'll still watch it even though I know he gets away. I think there's back story I'd like to learn more about. Perhaps the ghosts need closure to move on at the end and maybe the kidnapper is supernatural too. Why is it called the black phone? Something special about the phone, more backstory. Yeah looks good.

Thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate it. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

LOOKS AMAZING! I am actually glad Derrikson walked off Doc Strange 2 to do this instead!

Hello there. Thank you very much for your lovely words, I really do appreciate. Tell me what's your favorite movie of all my movies you have seen so far?

I’m so ready for this movie it looks SO FUCKING GOOD IM SO READY

Bro this looks so gdmn good it’s not even funny😭 Me and my mom are so excited to see this we’re going to theaters as soon as it comes out😮‍💨

If I was personally charge of making this trailer, I would have kept the concept of the kids behind the phone out of the trailer. The main kid getting kidnapped by a magician with a girl getting dreams to help him is already an idea that captures attention. The kids behind the phone could have been a neat twist.

@Kenicia Johnson Totally agree! From that point, it should be enough to entice ppl to see it. It could then be a movie where people who see it highly encourage others to go see it because of the crazy plot twists, etc. Many ways to do or not to do something, but I'm certainly looking forward to the movie, so perhaps the trailer did its job?? lol

Couldn't agree more!

No you’re absolutely right! However I do think they should have kept the “don’t hang up” and “who are you?” and instead of showing the kid, the screen goes black. This would have been good at the end of the trailer. Because it’s called “The Black Phone” so they have to show some concept of what the phone was for.

https://youtu.be/5nUXtpjXI0w

This is crazy 😓

I can't wait!

This gonnna be just 🔥

I'm excited to see a horror movie where ethan hawke is the villain

It seems to be too much so I hope there is more to the movie bc it literally gave everything expected.

Imagine if the trailer just shows him captured, answering a phone that was shown to not be connected, and then looking at the captor before the trailer ends. But no, they show the whole fucking movie

@CeeWorld it doesn’t matter that they won’t change, since the point of my post was just to express my frustration with the style of marketing they tend to use and nothing more. Just because they won’t change doesn’t mean I can’t be pissed off with this style, and the likes my comment got shows that people agree.

Then there would be no interest? "Wow he answered an unhooked phone, wacky"

@bo na comment thief

THE WHOLE FREAKING THING !!!! I don't even need to see it now.

I stopped halfway through the trailer because I felt like I literally watched the whole movie.

WOW! I stopped watching after a minute to not spoil anymore. I can feel PRISONERS vibe. And the great Ethan in lead role.

I'm not a fan of Ethan Hawke but I love how Scott Derrickson is getting more work and that Dr Strange got recognition!

Can't wait ❤❤💯💯

Has a very "IT" touch to it, looks good.
