Hilarious

Like its model, this, while operating on a lower plane, works less on a logical than on a filmic fever-dream level, but most of the original chill is gone.

Disappointing. Where _Phantasm_ was an original, this shows that Coscarelli has been adversely influenced by all of his imitators. The result is a textbook of modern horror movie cliches: you could cut the movie into random chunks, reassemble it, and have pretty much the same thing.

A slight step up in production quality somehow makes this inferior to the original. The creepy atmosphere is still there, and it's still a good movie, but it's just not as novel. The action and the humor really take center stage and make this one worthwhile.

The worst in the series, but still pretty good

not that bad. i mean, it's terrible, but it's not that bad.

Ya lost me flying silver ball movie. "DAMN THIS WIIIIND"

Is this a movie worth seeing? No, it's not! Did I really waste my time watching it? Is it a dream? No, it's not. I guess the joke is the end-of-the-movie line from the old commercials, which sadly, although they came out in 1988, I remember like it was yesterday.

the best Phantasm movie.

Good sequel with one of my favorite 80´s horror actors Reggie Bannister. Talked to him at last year´s con he´s realy cool & friendly.

Pretty good sequel with the FOUR-barreled shotgun. Good fun if a bit incoherent like its predecessor.

Neither better nor worse than the first one

Has most of the features I look for in an 80's horror. Imaginative, fun, and self-aware without being smarmy.

I actually enjoyed this one more than the first.

Infected with 80s Horror goofiness, rather than being enjoyably weird like the original.

Better than I remember the other sequels being. The movie lags during its first half but comes into its own midway through, when all of the characters link up. It certainly isn't as good as the original, and lacks the dreamlike tone that made that film so great to watch. Bannister seems to have a lot of fun with his role, LeGros does well enough as Mike, and Angus Scrimm is great as the Tall Man (Though he gets too little screen time). Props to Universal for finally putting this out on DVD.

Not Bad Sequel

Wow, this was pretty retarded. The four barrelled shotgun was lame. The only jugs shown in the movie were from a broad with a 12 year old boys chest, and what the hell was with those shiny ball shits going after the tall man's own minions?! ::shakes head:: When the tall man went recruiting these simpletons, I wonder if he wrote on the bottom of the application "WARNING: Death may occur if you get in the way of my shiny balls." Still, it wasn't a complete waste. =P

Fun, gory sequel.
