Mopars in the movie "The Black Phone"

[SteveSS]

The movie is set in 1978 in Denver, CO. The director must have had a Mopar fetish because almost every vehicle is a Mopar from the late sixties or early seventies. Cool cars mostly, lots of cop cars. If you like scary movies you'll like this. I thought it was creative and well made. Of course, there is an obligatory Schwinn Sting Ray as there always is when it's a story about kids in the sixties or seventies.

It came out today on the streaming service Peacock which is free to me since I use Xfinity internet.

It was only recently released in theaters since its release date was pushed back several times. It will release on DVD next Tuesday.

I bet you don't ever answer an old dial-type black wall phone again.

I think my uncle had the last functioning black wall phone in the world......I suppose he used it until they did away with "pulse" dialing; early 2000s maybe?

That's a shame, the trailer made it look good.
I suppose that's the point of them.
