This part where Finney is trying to figure out the combination lock from paperboy and the Grabber is sleep on the chair - too much tension tooooo much 
does Finney figure out the lock or what??? I can’t watch

The Black Phone is a Masterclass in how to do a horror movie right
8.5/10
Felt it could have used a stronger ending and they could have expanded on the scene where the brother finds out what’s really going down. Would have liked to also learn more about the girl’s “powers” and why the father was such a drunk piece of shyt but then what’s a horror movie without a drunk piece of shyt, abusive, dead or absent *insert parent/aunt/uncle …… “ so
But solid regular horror movie with solid tension without all of the slow babble and unnecessary dramatics- exposition tactics that seems to permeate the genre these days - def not as good as SINISTER with the demonic scares/shock sequences but the exploration of “boogey man kidnapper “ was evil enough in itself, also TBP shared the same cinematic elements in terms of filming (gritty grind house background 8mm camera (I think that’s what they call it) well worth the wait- not a dull moment at all. Movie was also sad when you find out the inevitable especially with the Latino kid
top 5 horror movie of the year on my list
Blumhouse has another one
!!!! Ethan Hawke bodied this role - as usual. Creepy voice and everything . Blumhouse - Hawke connection is wild entertaining. Everything they connect on has been A1.

I liked Nope. I originally thought the trailer spoiled the movie, but boy was I wrong.

I watched a few horror movies this weekend, here's some thoughts:
- LOVED Nope. Nope really fed my hunger for allegories and deeper meanings to mine. There's a bunch of fun stuff to deep-dive into (ie: there's a crazy strong Director/Audience vibe I want to look more closely at). But more importantly, it's just a good movie. The family dynamics felt natural and real. The mysterious elements were all fun to figure out and I felt they had satisfying answers. The horror elements were genuine and tense. Then the actors all bodied their roles. This joint was just plain good.
It's been a solid summer for that between Nope and the Black Phone. They're not quite hitting the scary levels that I thought the Ritual did or the gruesomeness of The Sadness; but these are genuine horror movies that I can suggest to non-horror movie heads. These are quality Hollywood fare and I think Nope is especially worth a trip to see in Imax. There are so many striking visuals, many of which happen at night, that I think the massive screen and sound quality bring the best out of.
We're eating pretty good lately fam!
- Next up, I watched Men. That was...an experience. Men does a lot of things well...I think it might have my favorite cinematography of any horror this year. It's another allegory-rich story, although in this case it's symbolic to the extent that it's inaccessible. I had to look up "the green man" to get any idea of wtf I had just watched. That said, it did nail some really good scares and discomfort. In a year with The Sadness' nastiness, Crimes of the Future's gross body-mods, and The Black Phone's absolutely brilliant mask...Men has the scene that will probably stick with me more than any of those movies...but those movies were all better imo.
- Finally, I watched Umma, a nice self-contained ghost/haunting movie. It falls into the trend of generational trauma or ghosts as the representation of our past. In this case, it covers a mother and first-generation immigrant from Korea and her daughter who has been home-schooled but wants to step out into college. This mother is dealing with the psychological trauma of her own upbringing while trying not to repeat it with her daughter. The issue is that this sort of thing has been done to the point that even adding an interesting cultural layer didn't help avoid some familiar tropes. It wound up being solid, but didn't do enough to stand out from other psychological trauma flicks. It's on Netflix though, and worth a once-through imho.

I disagree.

I disagree with your disagreement
What did you like about it? The only positive I can think of is that the acting was good and that’s it.
The trailer for Pearl drops tomorrow.
