Review of Phantom of the Paradise (1974) by Richard L — 10 Oct 2011
Brian DePalma's camp rock opera is definitely cheesy, but packs enough memorable imagery and sharp filmmaking to designate itself as a minor cult classic. The songs by Paul Williams are merely adequate, and the musical numbers tend to go on too long, but this is an entertaining oddity even if DePalma is a bit out of his element.
