The premise

When a rare phenomenon gives police officer John Sullivan the chance to speak to his father, 30 years in the past, he takes the opportunity to prevent his dad's tragic death. After his actions inadvertently give rise to a series of brutal murders he and his father must find a way to fix the consequences of altering time.

Horror Vault's take

A rare atmospheric event allows a New York cop to make radio contact with his deceased father across a thirty-year divide — a second chance that neither man could have anticipated. What begins as a deeply personal reunion quickly spirals into something far more dangerous, as tampering with the past sets off a chain of unforeseen and deadly consequences. With a serial killer's timeline suddenly in flux, both father and son must work across the decades to outmaneuver a threat that history has yet to resolve. Frequency is a rare breed of thriller that grounds its paranormal hook in genuine human emotion.
