Critic Reviews:
Naturally, this film’s success led to sequels, although, interestingly, we had to wait almost a decade before the release of Phantasm II (1988).
If your looking for a 70’s film that was way ahead of its time with everything you could ask for in a horror movie….Then this ones for you.

Phantasm is also an important film historically, as it sparked a trend towards surrealness in many horror films from the 80's, such as the Nightmare on Elm Street films.
