More and more, Horror sequel The original, a cheap, quick, weak copy of cash grabbing is a single beat hits the same beat slightly. Black phone 2 Is it or notIt is a sequel that transforms the origin in the ways and elevates them that you will never expect. You world, characters, killers and to the end, it is almost the same as it is almost the same. The original was only A table setting for the horrors of its follow -up.
once again Directed by Scott DeericsonHis and c. Based on a script by Robert Kargil, Black phone 2 Raises four years after the origin. In that film, Finni (Mason Themes)) The kidnapped by Grabber (Ethan Hawk), which he eventually killed with the help of ghosts of Garaber’s other victims, and killed the parabonomal abilities of his younger sister Guen (Medelene McGrag). Gwen’s bravery and clear personality was highlighted the film, but was taken to a large -scale edge. Here, not only we get it more, Black phone 2 Originally he has a film, and it is better for it.
The original film also definitely killed Grabber, so when Guen begins to dream about an old set of murders, and Funi starts receiving a phone call from him, things immediately change. They are no longer working with a real-life person in their neighborhood-this is now something scary, and with a history that goes back for decades.
Black phone 2 There is a lot to install in the beginning, and,, for this reason, it takes a little time to leave. We spend time in their high school with Finni and Guen, which is more violent, but also more romantic. We see what the events of the first film have done to him and the world around him. There is also a complete new story, focused on a winter camp that keeps dreaming of Guen. The film has to be clearly established as to know why brothers and sisters will voluntarily go to this camp, knowing that he can wait. After all, there is a very good hook, but then it also requires more and more exposure.
Once Black phone 2 Found in the camp, however, everything changes. Not only in the story, but also in the nature of the film. First Black phone To a large extent there was a supernatural thriller, where we chewed our nails, hopefully we can exclude the finni and ghosts. Now, Grabber is dead, so the horrific brand is a new brand of horror when he came into contact with him in contact with him. And when you filter through the dreams of the guen, on the way Freddy Crorategers have more than some colors.
In addition, the film borrows quite generously (but never distracted) from other classic horror films of the 1970s and 1980s. Settings bring to the mind ShiningThis is a camp near a lake Friday 13th(In addition to the lower Sorrowful on Elm StreetThere are other winks and nodes complete.) It works together to make all Black phone 2 Change from a thriller like the original makes more comfortable in the more of a slester film. It works beautifully, and begins to flow gore in ways that move well beyond the original film.
Most importantly, the best thing about Black phone 2 Finni and Guen. Their relationship was the best part of the origin, and here they are together for the entire film. Temes is as excellent as harsh finni, a boy has completely turned from everything he has passed. But The True is Star McGragra, whose potty-mouth, religious-fashioned dream warrior is funny, heartbreaking, heroic and delightful at once. Every time we are with any of them (or preferably), the film brightens that very bright. Throwing at Demoni Bichir as the head of the camp, Jeremy Davis is returning as a father, and the original film star Miguel Mora-Jin played Kick-Gost Robin in that film and returns here as his brother Ernesto-and got more than enough to bring you. Black phone 2 Perfectly for new levels.
And it goes to all new levels. Without spoiling too much, Black phone 2 Not only develops the nature of the franchise, but it also connects more mythology and depth. We learn such things here, which resumes everything we originally seen, which yes, roughly to do how and why Grabber became so incredibly evil. In that purpose, Ethan Hawk is as terrible as usual, even we mostly see it in masks.
Black phone 2 It may take some time to leave, but its major performance, primary relationship and twists make it worth traveling. It is a good shot of great horror moments, some laughter, and even emotion that is to tie everything together. The first film was definitely solid, but it is an excellent. Rare sequel to which beats its predecessor.
Black phone 2 It had a world premiere in Fantastic Fest 2025 and opens everywhere on 17 October.
