If you're a Stephen King fan and read his anthology "If It Bleeds" a few years ago, the new NETFLIX film, "Mr. Harrigan's Phone" will seem eerily familiar to you. It was one of the short stories in the book and the one that made my skin crawl the most. The very moment I saw the ad pop up on my NETFLIX app, I may have cheered out loud.

The trailer below explains the premise better than I can but having Donald Sutherland bring Mr. Harrigan to life in this tale is too good to be true. I haven't seen the film yet, but I can't imagine it will disappoint. Stephen King's mind and a BLUMHOUSE vision, just in time for Halloween.
