"Phantasm is a must see for any serious genre fan. No it’s not a perfect flick but you have to admire its creativity, originality and…well…its balls. It looks slick, moves fast and kind of has the same feel as the first "Nightmare On Elm Street", dark and mean. Even in death you’re not safe when the Tall Man’s around…."-as quoted by arrow in the head.

Films and the critics who hate them (741 movies items)

"Although enough of a cult favourite to spawn a trio of undistinguished sequels, this low budget independent horror movie is a surprisingly shambolic affair whose moments of genuine invention stand out amid the prevailing incompetence. - Trevor Johnston, Time Out"

" The Evil Dead might be the most well-known of cult horror films (which are bad) but this tops my list of favorites which fall into that category. Sure it's spawned an endless franchise of cheap sequels...well, the first sequel is actually quite good but beyond that...;P Phantasm is super-cool and weird in the extreme. The Tall Man is one of my favorite horror villains (portrayed by Angus Scrimm) and certainly one of the creepiest. "
