Phantasm

This is the first time I've seen a mvoie from the Phantasm series, and I dug it a little more than I expected to. There was a little more gore than I expected there to be. I loved the flying balls of death too. The overall mood was also great. It had a creepy dead feeling to it. The hooded dwarfs lurking around the corners gave me chills! I'll defenatly be checking out the rest of the series. 4 out of 5.

Characters:

• Mike: Older brother who likes to travel. Dosn't set the greatest example for his brother when he has sex with a stranger in a cemetery. Killed I guess...
• Jody: Little bother that follows Mike everyplace. Discovers something very odd about the motuary.
• The Tall Man: Freakishly strong guy that runs the mortuary. Buried beneath rocks.
• Reggie: Ice cream truck driver and friend of the family. Killed, but is then alive... I can't really explain.
• Tommy: Dies early on while getting it on in a cemetery with a hot chic that turns into The Tall Man. Ewwwwwww....

The Totals:

• Body Count: depending on your interpretation, either 3 or 2.
• Weapons Used: A knife, a hammer. flying balls of death, a door, a garbage disposal, a gun, and rocks.
• Breast Shots: 2
• Moments where characters are mysteriously unable to run from certain death: 0
• Ominous thunderstorms: 1
• Explosions: 1

Random Thought and Things Learned

• Isn't kinda creepy watching your brother getting it on with a girl?
• Ice cream trucks are ideal for storing evil hooded dwarfs.
• Severed fingers can turn into evil wasps.
• If you see a metal ball with spikes flying around, you may want to duck.
