Phantasm (1979)
7/10
Classic window into 70s horror
2 September 2020
This definitely had the feel of the 70s. The music, atmosphere, way they talk, clothing, all 70s. Even the effects make you feel like it's the 70s.

The movie itself is pretty average in my opinion. Maybe I'm spoiled from minders movies but I had a hard time staying interested. Story was a little slow, and I kinda wish there was more spheres in the movie.

One thing I didn't like is after the plot is wrapped up, one of the characters just straight up dies off screen. One scene he is a hero, then next he is dead. I had to rewind the movie because I thought I missed something.

Over all it's a cheesy 70s horror movie. At first I thought it was a satire movie but it is serious. Entertaining, yes. But I don't think I'd watch this again unless I wasn't sober.
