Phantasm, a review by addicted2dvd
Stars: A. Michael Baldwin [Michael Baldwin] as Mike Bill Thornbury as Jody Reggie Bannister as Reggie Kathy Lester as Lady in Lavender Terrie Kalbus as Fortuneteller's Granddaughter Ken Jones as Caretaker Plot: When two brothers uncover the startling secret of the living dead following the murder of their friend, what seems like a horrible unending nightmare becomes terrifying reality! A mortuary's embalming cellar is the site for supernatural evil - including a floating sphere with razor-sharp protruding daggers which seeks out victims and drains the blood from their heads. As the brothers learn more and more about what is really going on at Morningside Mortuary, they get deeper into trouble... until it may be too late to escape! Extras:
My Thoughts: This is the first movie from the region 2 set that was recently given to me. This set contains all 4 movies plus a 5th extras disc. It has been a good couple years since I watched this movie... so I am glad I had a reason to watch it again. I forgot how much I enjoyed it. Angus Scrimm did a good job being the Tall Man. I found him to be pretty creepy. But another that I found to be on the creepy side here was the psychic woman and her granddaughter that Mike went to go see early on in the movie. The way they worked off each other I felt was very cool. And of course I liked the signature of the Phantasm movies... the flying ball... "The Orb of Evil" as I just seen it called in the Phantasm III trailer. I really enjoyed every minute of re-watching this movie. Whether you never had the opportunity to see this movie... or it has been many years since you seen it. This is one I would highly recommend.I am now looking forward to checking out the rest of the set. I have seen part 2 before... years ago as well. But to be honest I don't believe I ever seen the last two movies in this film series. Hopefully they don't go downhill too much! My Rating: Out of a Possible 5 (From What Movies I Been Watching on February 9th, 2013) Friday the 13th - Part V: A New Beginning, a review by RossRoy

With him killing the Annoying One, it is also a turning point in the series. Like he says, it will be more fun around here now. Rating: (From Tom's Buffy and Angel Marathon on January 31st, 2009) |
