Introduction
The Black String is a 2018 American psychological horror thriller film directed by Brian Hanson.
Although I watch horror movies very rarely because after watching them, the same scary scenes come to my mind again but there is a different kind of fun in watching a horror movie where I get to see good suspense. By the way, I am watching a horror movie after a long time. Earlier I used to watch horror TV shows at night which I liked a lot and I was surprised that after all I used to watch so much in that time but now I feel a strange fear .
At the beginning of the film, we see a man named Jonathan working in a stall. Frankie Muniz is playing the role of Jonathan. Once an old man comes to his store who looks very bad and looks like he is homeless. Jonathan stares at him for a long time, Jonathan also stares at him for a while but then he gets busy with his work. Then in the next scene we are shown that Jonathan lives alone because he is an introvert type of person who also lives separately from his parents. He is not fond of talking much and he sometimes draws cartoons alone.
Jonathan didn't have many friends either.
The next day it is shown that Jonathan is cleaning his store and then he sees that someone is knocking on the glass. When Jonathan goes there and looks, it is the same man who was breaking in yesterday and that man is knocking on the glass loudly and as soon as he sees Jonathan, that man runs away from there. Then Jonathan does not understand what is happening here and he returns to his home in the evening.
Jonathan comes back home and is watching something on TV. Then suddenly a commercial is shown on TV in which a girl is shown and a phone number is given below. Then it is told that you can make friends with the girl by calling the number given below and much more. You guys must have understood what I am talking about and who is being talked about. Jonathan has watched this advertisement very carefully and he notes down that number in a copy. Jonathan was very happy to see this commercial because perhaps he felt that this would bring him some distance and this commercial was for people like him. Now he immediately gets a call on his number and the call is picked up, a girl speaks from the other side who tells her name as Dena, she says that we can meet the next day at night. Jonathan was very happy to talk to her and when he goes to work the next day, he works very happily. Jonathan was just waiting for the night when he would meet the girl. Finally it becomes evening and at night he picks up Dena at the given address.
Dena was standing outside a house. They both just go to a hotel to eat. Jonathan was too shy to talk to her, which was also quite evident.
Then there both go to Jonathan's house and Jonathan first becomes the sketch of Dena. The next day when Jonathan wakes up, he is a liar in the house but he was quite surprised to see that giving is nowhere to be found. Then immediately goes to his store where he works and tells the whole thing to his store owner who was also his good friend.
Then he tells that since last night he is having a strange burning sensation in his body. He was not able to understand what is happening to him. The store owner advises him to get a checkup done by a doctor because he felt that this infection can spread throughout his body. When Jonathan gets a checkup done by the doctor, the doctor tells him that it will take 2 days to check the infection, till then the doctor gives him a medicine to take. Now Jonathan comes out of the hospital and immediately calls Dena, but her mobile number is switched off. Now he goes to the address where he picked up Dena last night, there he finds out that Dena does not live there. Jonathan does not believe her words, so Jonathan goes inside the house through the door, then he sees some strange people there who were staring at him in a strange way and he finds it quite strange.
After reaching home Jonathan calls Dena again and a man picks up the phone and says that this number does not belong to Dena and you are here. Now Jonathan is surprised to see everything here again.
Now Jonathan goes to the hotel where he had dinner with Deena. He takes with him the sketch of Deena which he had made in his room. When he is sitting in the hotel, a girl sitting next to him is staring at him. Then Jonathan gets a call from his boss who works in a store there. His boss says in the phone that you are going to get into trouble, come to my house quickly. Jonathan immediately goes towards his house and when he reaches home, he sees that there is a lot of silence and no one's voice is coming. He calls out to his owner but no one answers. Then he hears that his boss's voice is coming from a room and he goes towards that room and as soon as he starts opening the room, someone attacks him from behind and to save his life, Jonathan also attacks him. Suddenly the police comes there and arrests Jonathan and takes him away. The police here said that we are arresting Jonathan for the crime of breaking into his owner's house and trying to rape him.
Now Jonathan is behind bars inside the jail and then the doctor comes there to whom Jonathan had gone for the treatment of his infection. That doctor also shows Jonathan the picture of his boss in which his boss was beaten up very badly and Jonathan says that I did not do it.
Now Jonathan, his boss and his parents are called, here his boss clearly denies that he made any call. His boss says that Jonathan came to his house without being invited and at that time Jonathan tried to rape him. But Jonathan clearly denies this and says that I got a call from the boss and that's when I went to his house but I didn't hit him. Jonathan's boss also agrees that I didn't make any call to him. After listening to both of them, Jonathan's parents start feeling that Jonathan's mental condition has deteriorated due to living alone. He has become mentally unstable and he needs a good doctor.
After this Jonathan's condition starts getting worse. He gets strange thoughts. The infection in his body also starts increasing and spreading. He starts feeling as if someone is keeping an eye on him. Now Jonathan's parents take him to their home so that they can take care of Jonathan. But Jonathan did not like going with them at all. Jonathan did not want to live with his parents and he wanted to go back to his own apartment. Jonathan's parents tell him to stay tonight only. Now when Jonathan goes to sleep, he again starts getting strange thoughts and after that Jonathan feels as if some shadow is roaming in his house.
That night Jonathan's condition worsens and he punches his father and runs away from home. After walking a little distance, he faints. Now he goes to a gas station and sees a poster in front of it which has a picture of the girl who was staring at him in the hotel. In the poster, it was written about the girl that she is an expert on spirits and ghosts. Jonathan reaches the address written in the poster. When he reaches there, the address is of a hotel and the receptionist there talks to Jonathan and Jonathan tells her about himself. The receptionist gives him a bundle and in this bundle, she gives him an address which is of the girl whom Jonathan is searching for.
Now Jonathan reaches the address which was given to him by the receptionist. There he reads a book which was in a bundle which the receptionist had given to Jonathan. Then a girl comes there who is the same receptionist. While reading the book Jonathan comes to know that he is possessed by a witch. That girl looks at Jonathan and tells him that some girl has possessed him. Black magic has been done on him. These are the people who belong to a cult and the devil supports them. These people prey on such people who like to live alone. Then she tells him that a girl named Dena has done black magic on him. Then she tells him that due to black magic a black thread has started forming in his body and he will have to remove this thread otherwise after some time the devil himself will come and remove the black thread from him and he will kill him as well.
Now I end the story here and from here onwards the real suspense of this movie starts.
My Reviews
Talking about the movie, it is a good thing that it keeps giving you suspense. From the beginning till the last few minutes, you will feel that all this is a suspense and something big is going to happen ahead. As it happens in the movie Baaghi, some suspense is definitely revealed in the end but there is nothing like that in this movie. The thing that I did not like was that they made the end of the movie quite unexpected and this was such a part that probably every person who is watching this movie would want that something happens in the end so that the whole story changes but the end of this movie was quite normal. Although the movie is not very long, it is only around one and a half hours, so you guys can definitely watch it.

The visuals from me trying to picture the scenes as I read was thrilling. If you had only just given the entire plot. Lol.

It sounds really interesting and it strikes me that it has a lot of suspense, I don't usually watch a lot of horror movies either but lately I want to see different things so thanks for sharing your review 💕
There is a lot of suspense, but the ending is not that special.
