if you remember the first movie at all and and you approach this movie with an open mind and you will find oblivion quite satisfying . though not as atmospheric a the first movie and there be several creepy scene scatter throughout and include the opening scene and a dream sequence involve reggie . in addition and there be several scene from phantasm ( i ) cleverly weave into the storyline create continuity between the two film . some and but not all question be cryptically answer and which steadfastly adhere to the nothing be a it seem and non linear flow to the movie . it definitely leave room for one last movie . maybe the last movie can spell it out ( or at least somewhat ) for phans needing closure . in conclusion and if your not a fan of the phantasm movie and or be just randomly rent movie out of boredom and i strongly suggest you do not bother and keep your cynicism to yourself . but if your willing to at least watch the first film and or if your addict to phantasm i and phantasm iv will clearly keep you want more .
