Leave your thoughts about Phantasm.
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrA spotty little horror movie, effective here and there through some appealing eccentricities. |
| Slant MagazineJeremiah KippWhat makes Phantasm special is the way it captures a boy's life in 1978. [Remastered] |
| FEARnetScott WeinbergDoesn't fall into any of the easily-classifiable genres, and I suppose that's one of the reasons it's so well-remembered all these years later. |
| Film4Daniel EtheringtonWith its blend of horror and sci-fi and crap and cool, and its deceitful story-line, Phantasm's certainly unlike other American films of the period. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzPassable in spots, it offers dumb fun and turns out to be one of the best films that Coscarelli ever made |
| AV ClubKatie RifePhantasm is wildly imaginative and legitimately creepy, confronting death and mourning as part of the coming-of-age process while also delivering nutty Jawa-type critters and blood spurting out of peoples' faces. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonOne of the definitive '70s horror pictures, in the last few months before '70s horror got steamrolled into oblivion... a raw blast of sensory information. |
| Daily DeadHeather WixsonWhether you've always loved Phantasm, never saw it, or never even had the affection for Don Coscarelli's nightmarish tale, I cannot think of a better way to experience this film now than with the remastered version. |
| NewsweekDavid AnsenA wonderfully creative, bizarre, delightfully terrifying horror film that never fails to surprise. |
| Time Out LondonTom HuddlestonOver the course of three wild sequels, Coscarelli expanded his bizarre universe in a variety of imaginative and deliriously entertaining ways – but the original set the standard. [Remastered] |
