Review of Phantasm (1979) by Robert M — 14 Oct 2016

Uh. Ok. Not a great plot, it has a icon ready looking villain and cool weapon. After seeing the first three movies, I can say it's a weird franchise and not in a good way. It simultaneously under explains and over explains and make up the mythology in random ways as it goes along.

I'm baffled by the draw to this especially since A Nightmare on Elm Street and the Evil Dead take similar routes to much better success.
