Phantasm

One of the most beloved horror movies of its era, precisely because it's so different. -- L.A. Times

PHANTASM is better experienced than explained...its big scares work because they seemingly continue to emerge from a writers feverish subconscious, one racked with dread and confusion. -- Empire Magazine

Don Coscarellis horror masterpiece isnt just creepy, funny and wildly entertaining its weird. Deeply weird. Endearingly weird. Weird on the kind of wavelength that you really dont see very often. And its a wavelength that many horror fans seem to be right in tune with. -- Slash Film

Inventive DIY horror with a berserk plot involving homicidal space midgets, heroic ice-cream men, flying spheres which drill into the brain and of course the terrifying Tall Man. -- Time Out

At only 23 years old, Don Coscarelli wrote, produced, directed, shot and edited his magnum opus -- one thats truly withstood the test of time, and has influenced many successive generations of filmmakers. Phantasm deftly mixes gothic horror, sci-fi, surrealism and a killer prog rock score together in a grief-ridden adolescent fever dream that horror fans have never stopped worshipping. -AGFA
