    • Trivia
      Unlike It, this movie is adapted from a shorter work rather than a full-fledged novel. John Lee Hancock adapted the screenplay from the Stephen King novella of the same name. The novella "Mr. Harrigan's Phone" is included in King's collection If It Bleeds.
    • Goofs
      A poster of a bear that is on Craig's bedroom wall is gone when he wakes up in the morning.
    • Quotes

      [first lines]

      Craig: [narrating] When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers. Oscar Wilde wrote that. We didn't read that book. Maybe we should have.

    It's Not Scary, but great acting and will make you think
    Such good acting. It is slow, but you become invested in the characters early enough to stay interested. Donald Sutherland did AMAZING. Every time he was on the screen you wanted to watch him. It's been a while since he was so captivating on screen. It is deep and has an underlying message which may irritate people, but I agree with that message so I related to the movie well. Cell phones/Smart phones aren't always the best use of our time, or the healthiest option for our own minds. They have become addictive and overused in our society to the point that people can no longer think objectively. I don't like that the mom was never really explained.
