Given the pending release of Phantasm : Ravager, and having only caught the second instalment in Don Coscarelli 's cult franchise, I thought it best to go back and watch the entire series from the beginning. So how does the classic first flick stack up? Stick with me! A young boy and his friends face off against a mysterious grave robber known only as the Tall Man , who keep an arsenal of terrible weapons with him.

News broke just days ago that a fifth Phantasm movie was headed our way, and we were able to share the official poster with you fine Basementites. Now the teaser trailer has hit the Interwebs, and it looks . . . like a Phantasm movie!
