Description

THE BALL IS BACK!!! We're thrilled to present for one-night-only Don Coscarelli’s PHANTASM in a newly remastered 4K presentation personally overseen by JJ Abrams. It’s part of Star Wars: The Force Awakens lore that JJ Abrams named Captain Phasma after PHANTASM!
 
The beloved cult horror classic is a cerebral nightmare epic that sounds like something that you’d find scribbled on H.P. Lovecraft's bedsheets: A teenage boy discovers that an indestructible grandpa is harvesting the deceased. Grandpa transforms the dead into dwarves that will serve him in another dimension. Luckily, the local marijuana-loving ice cream man is willing to join in the battle against the paranormal retiree. Shotguns and shapeshifting take center stage as unholy darkness threatens to swallow the town alive, complete with flying metal murderballs. Writer/director Don Coscarelli creates an absorbing otherworld ruled by the "Tall Man," one of cinema's all-time greatest villains, and the unparalleled score will haunt you for decades. This is truly one of the most effective reality-liquefiers in horror history. It's also the perfect Halloween mood-setter.
