Phantasm: Remastered
Directed by Don Coscarelli
Don Coscarelli’s beloved 1979 sci-fi horror classic returns in a beautiful new restoration (headed by J.J. Abrams and Bad Robot). When Mike’s parents die, his world is turned upside down. But nothing can prepare him for the shocking discovery that a mortician (the late, great Angus Scrimm) and his dwarf army have stolen Mike’s parents’ bodies. Did we mention the flying spheres? Though the surreal scare-fest unfolds like a child’s bad dream, the terror it evokes is far more real and intense than most fright flicks. PHANTASM’s success led to four sequels and a permanent place in the horror hall of fame.

This movie is like a dream....or nightmare that you would have. A classic.
Wonderfully bonkers movie. No need to remaster it; didn’t add anything to the experience.
Not sure about the updated soundtrack. It’s kind of like colorizing a classic black and white film. I love the original.
Not the biggest fan but interesting concept.
Terrible movie. Absolute waste of time.
