BTW...How on earth did you avoid seeing Child's Play?...You really SHOULD see Phantasm:)
Well i dont have sky or cable or any of that stuff and normal
English tv rarely ever shows horror movies and the only video store near me only has new releases and then they send back the old ones.

The amount of a letdown that is would make a great movie seem bad.
that's exactly why i put house of 1000 corpses on my worst horror movie list on a old thread because of my high expectations of seeing a dawn of the dead or halloween calibor movie until the second time i saw it i thought it was horrible.

Well, if you have a multi-region DVD player, just buy it off of Ebay or Amazon. Phantasm is good IMO because it is ORIGINAL in it's storyline and concept. I really loved watching it when I was a kid. I also loved to daydream about how awesome it would be if Reggie was an ice cream man in my neighborhood.;)

Evil dead series i can see why people like the first one cause its a very good movie but the sequals are pure crap there so stupid and goofy.

i guess phantasm was a big deal when it came out, every time i bring it up my brother tells me of when it was released and how everyone he knew raved about it but when he saw it he wasn't all that impressed. as for myself, i own the 1st one and i've seen some of the others and it's okay-i think that's one that SHOULD be re-made.
