When Mike follows Jody one too many times he discovers that their is something extremely wrong with the local undertaker and his mosoleum. At first it just seems like a kid telling tall tales.

The boy in this movie was cuter than a Disney kid. The 1971 Baracuda muscle car was great. It left me wanting more, though, so I became disappointed when I found out that the director had around three extra hours of this movie that he trimmed and presumably lost. I would have liked to see everything that was shot for this movie.

Phantasm is a CLASSIC! The "Tall Man" is scarier than any of these slasher flick maniacs!
