Oscar nominee Ethan Hawke, in the most disturbing role of his career, stars in a new psychological thriller from Blumhouse and the director who brought you Sinister and Doctor Strange.
Finney Shaw, a shy but clever 13-year-old boy, is abducted by a sadistic killer and trapped in a soundproof basement where screaming is of little use. When a disconnected phone on the wall begins to ring, Finney discovers that he can hear the voices of the killer’s previous victims. And they are dead set on making sure that what happened to them doesn’t happen to Finney.

When writers of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries
explored the implications of organic and emotional sensitivity, the
pain of the body gave rise to unsettling but irresistible
questions. Urged on by some of their most deeply felt
preoccupations - and in the case of figures like Coleridge and P.
B. Shelley, by their own experiences of chronic pain - many writers
found themselves drawn to the imaginative scrutiny of bodies in
extremis. Bodily Pain in Romantic Literature reveals the
significance of physical hurt for the poetry, philosophy, and
medicine of the Romantic period. This study looks back to
eighteenth-century medical controversies that made pain central to
discussions about the nature of life, and forward to the birth of
surgical anaesthesia in 1846. It examines why Jeremy Bentham wrote
in defence of torture, and how pain sparked the imagination of
thinkers from Adam Smith to the Marquis de Sade. Jeremy Davies
brings to bear on Romantic studies the fascinating recent work in
the medical humanities that offers a fresh understanding of bodily
hurt, and shows how pain could prompt new ways of thinking about
politics, ethics, and identity.

The world faces an environmental crisis unprecedented in human
history. Carbon dioxide levels have reached heights not seen for
three million years, and the greatest mass extinction since the
time of the dinosaurs appears to be underway. Such far-reaching
changes suggest something remarkable: the beginning of a new
geological epoch. It has been called the Anthropocene. The Birth of
the Anthropocene shows how this epochal transformation puts the
deep history of the planet at the heart of contemporary
environmental politics. By opening a window onto geological time,
the idea of the Anthropocene changes our understanding of
present-day environmental destruction and injustice. Linking new
developments in earth science to the insights of world historians,
Jeremy Davies shows that as the Anthropocene epoch begins, politics
and geology have become inextricably entwined.
Preaching is an essential component of priestly ministry and a
means of pastoral engagement with the community, incarnating the
holy and the eternal in the local and the now, and articulating the
prophetic voice of the Church. It is a high calling and preachers

companion, illustrated with examples of sermon texts, offers a rich
doctrine of preaching in the Anglican tradition that will inspire
confidence and hone skills. It explores key aspects of preaching
including: Scripture as the heart of all preaching Preaching as
mission and engagement with the wider world Preaching to all ages -
the use of story Preaching and rites of passage - baptisms, wedding
and funerals Preaching through the liturgical year including
festivals For beginners and seasoned preachers alike, this resource
will provide inspiration over and over again.
