Phantasm est un film d'horreur culte sorti en 1979 réalisé par Don Coscarelli.
Phantasm est un chef-d'oeuvre, mon film d'horreur préféré, où le scénario est excellent pour ma part. Phantasm est un film assez effrayant, il y'a une bonne ambiance et de bonnes scènes, surtout la scène culte de la sphère. On retrouvera un croque-mort terrifiant, qui est très bien interprété par Angus Scrimm. On verra certains moments sexuel pendant les 30 première minutes.
A voir, ma note 10/10
Over the course of three wild sequels, Coscarelli expanded his bizarre universe in a variety of imaginative and deliriously entertaining ways – but the original set the standard. [Remastered]
Phantasm will not be remembered as a masterpiece of the horror genre, but it sustains a gauche, hokey, desperately improvisational charm.... It entertains through a half-facetious juvenile gusto.
Phantasm is a really strange horror movie but also an one-of-a-kind story packed up with an eerie atmosphere and a cult synth score from Fred Myrow. Unfortunately the sequels wasn't as good as the first one but the original is still very effective.
this is a movie where you will never know what is going to happen all the way to the end of the movie and the entire movie feels like a dream sequence in a good way
It looks really messy. Some shots are soft, it is a very dirty print, the lighting is generally hard and bad, it looks a bit wobbly. Basically it is an old film and it looks like an old film. The effects are pretty unconvincing but occasionally cool. It was pretty messy sounding too. Most of the dialogue didn't seem to fit the picture, the sound effects were sparse and misplaced (almost incomplete!). There is very little story really. Just a creepy tall man, his dwarfs and balls, an inter-dimensional gate, a big bug and an ice-cream truck. It is awesome! It is so out-there that it works brilliantly. There are some really intense bits too. An instant classic that is still pretty intense and enjoyable today.
I don't think it's a perfect movie but I respect Phantasm for being different and for not really fitting in with any typical horror genre. And the fact that it is so hard to place makes it all the more worthwhile to watch.
