Phantasm / USA / 1978
“Slaves! They’re using them as slaves!” Where in the hell did Don Coscarelli get the money to make this slice of sheer, inspired lunacy? What movie exec/ studio head/ philanthropist read this script and went ‘Intergalactic zombie dwarves in a creepy funeral parlour? Flyin’ spiky silver death ball, you say? Drops him down, what, a mine shaft? Sure, kid, go ahead!’? It really, really shouldn’t work, but somehow it does, it’s riveting, funny, weirdly unsettling, a stone- cold classic. Even the acting is pretty good. But what’s with all the ‘Dune’ references?
