Phantasm 2 was a childhood favorite.

I thought this was a surprisingly competently done and imaginative movie, they really did a lot with what they had, and it punches above its weight. The cosmic horror element is superb.

That flying, drilling, brain-pumping ball. How do you even think of that?

Series is gold. Freaked me out as a kid.

Director said he had a dream about being chased down a hallway by a flying mirror ball. He built the rest of the movie around that idea.

I knew it. The ball was too special. It's the seed idea.

The whole series is gold, it gets so crazy

The wonderfully strange cult classic from Don Coscarelli.

Excellent choice. I thought this was a fun movie, though I haven't seen it in over 30 years.

It's about time for a revisit then.. ;)

My dad introduced this one to me when I was younger. I’ve watched all of them and what a crazy series it was. I loved every weird minute of it
