it be close to ten year since i have see either of the last two sequel to phantasm surely due to my still vivid remembrance of them not be very good . that be acknowledge to this day and i be still a huge fan of the first two installment so i thought i would go back and re experience the final chapter . part three be definitely the bad of the series since it obviously take itself less seriously and throw in a bunch of confuse stuff that doesn not make much sense . again and kick off right where the previous movie leave u and reggie save mike from the tall man who vow to come back for him later and but thing aren not safe for long when they come across jody who be inexplicably able to the take the form of a sphere . apparently his soul be hold prisoner by the tall man so mike be then drag into the sinister double pronged netherworld and reg have to find him . along the way and he meet up with a ten year old kid and a nun chuck wield black chick name rocky who assist him throughout his journey . there really nothing memorable about phantasm iii other than how stupid and forcefully humorous it try to be . only one positive aspect that do not even help the movie and that be the return of a. michael baldwin and bill thornbury who reprise their role for the first time since the original 1978 classic . the problem be and they pretty much make cameo appearance . reggie banister be of course back in his star role and but his bumbling and love sick attitude make his presence far too annoy to like . angus scrimm also just do not seem entirely into his role . he talk too much here and be nowhere near a menacing and creepy in contrast with the quirkiness that the movie seem to carelessly resort to . most people opinion on this flick seem pretty impassive and tend to think it still entertain . maybe i be just too much of a nit picker but i just couldn not get into this one . i remember dislike it when i be a kid and after re watch it i can safely say nothing have change . don coscarelli rock the scene with his original low budget and nightmarish and legendary film phantasm and which i still rank a my top favorite horror flick and his respectable sequel keep thing move and darkly surreal and gory and but lord of the dead ( stupid title ) just look too rush and slap together to me . the inclusion of the two new character and tim and rocky ( the only thing miss be scrappy doo . ) and be a strong indication of coscarelli run out of idea and see how far he could ride the franchise . so and it a phantasm movie with very little gore and nudity and and quadruple barrel shot gun . need i say more .
