The Black Phone doesn’t show much. It doesn’t have to.
So issimply playing on these echoes of panics past and present, or using them to stoke more terror? Doesn’t a movie like this feel bizarrely regressive in 2022?

Abusive parents, school bullies, and incompetent police officers endanger even those children not taken by the Grabber.
Ultimately, it is not the adults who rescue Finney but other kids: It’s his sister, Gwen, whose clairvoyance provides vital clues for the bumbling detectives, the ghost children who guide Finney with the help of the black phone, and Finney himself who musters the courage to fight back.While right-wing politicians and moral entrepreneurs continue to incite their forever panics, the reality of child endangerment is far less sensational.
