Phantasm - Kenji - 05-01-2008

Has anyone seen Phantasm? In a theatre?

I remember Phantasm, because I saw it in a theatre when I was a kid. It frightened me! Who the hell was that Tall Man?! And that silver ball with blades and drill! Ugh! That was ultimately scary! I can't see almost screen.

And now....

Finally DVD came out, and I saw it tonight again. 27 or 28 years later, now I thought I can see it perfectly, but even now I felt it scary, and creepy. When Mike cut Tall Man's fingers, yellow blood spewed! Ewwwww!!! I recalled nightmare...... :eek:

I never got to see Phantasm in the theater, but I did see Phantasm 2 there. Unfortunately, Phantasm 2 is the only Phantasm that has yet to see a DVD release in the US, which is odd seeing as how 3 starts right where 2 left off.

Karl,

I've never seen Phantasm 2. Was it scary?

I have never seen a Phantasm film from start to finish, though it's been on 'in the background' once or twice so I know what you're talking about.

It always looked a bit cheap n stoopid to me. Do you think that you were scared of it becasue you were a kid when you saw it, or would you recommend it as a good film to hunt out? :confused:

Oh, because you've never seen it in a theatre.


And you should check this with DTS sound system in a dark room. The sound effect spooked me, too! :eek:

I remember enjoying it in the theater way back when, and a couple of times on VHS. I remember it being scary and cool, but I'm also looking at 15+ years of hindsight, and cannot recall exactly. This is why I want it on DVD, so I can watch it again (without having to eBay a PAL copy of the ultimate box set that was released).

Saw it many times on the big screen. I wonder how many people got the reference to Herbert's "DUNE" (the box)?
