Phantasm

20-year-old Don Coscarelli wrote and directed this low-budget, school kid's idea of a scary story: young boy must convince his older brother that the neighborhood funeral parlor is actually a house of horrors, presided over by the Tall Man and guarded by a flying silver sphere. At one point, the sphere boars its way into a man's skull, and the audience gets a dirty laugh as blood shoots out the other end and the victim urinates on the floor. There's no other relief in "Phantasm", as much of the acting is amateurish and the rest of the special effects are variable. Coscarelli is actually given more credit from horror fans than he deserves; nine years later he was still doing the same thing, albeit with a bigger budget. *1/2 from ****

Phantasm is a wierd and hard to understand film from the late 70s, but that doesn't meen it's bad. I love the characters ecpecially Reggie he kind of steals the show. The kills are mostly good and i love the tall man. I don't like that you don't really know what's going on, the movie also feels kind of slow. Overall i think this movie is good and i think you should watch it.
