From Guy Thorpe (who else?), here's a look back at the Pacific Theatre Premiere of Phantasm II, complete with hearse stuffing. I do believe there's more on this tape but I couldn't bring myself to edit anymore into this video right now. I know for sure that I have here some marvelous interview footage of Angus in the back of the hearse I'll upload soon, which will be considerably longer than this video. May have to put that one on the Archives rather than YouTube.
One of these days, Guy is going to haul off and slug me one for the crazy music I sync to his poor videos. : )

That was great phootage (he he phootage) of Angus at the premier! That would be great 2c an actual premier of a new Phantasm!! I like the poster in the background, Terrifying. Relentless. Unstoppable." (just like the I.R.S.) I don't believe i have seen that tag associated with Phantasm b4. I , 2 love that retro stuff about anything 80's, but especially a great Philm (he he philm) like Phantasm. Just 4 phun (he he..ok ok, enough) i clicked on the link that showed siskel and ebert reviewing Phantasm 2, and i wished i had not! I hate all movie critics, even the ones that agree with what i like. Who the hell pays these assholes to sit around and tell us what is good and what is not?? When you go to a museum there isn't a paid guy there saying', "Oh no, u don't want 2c the Picasso, he sucks!" One of the things i have never understood about film critics is they put say, a Van Damme movie against Schindlers List and say, "Oh in comparison, i found Van Damme unrealistic and unimportant to Schindler." Uh duh! REALLY??!! Compare Phantasm, any of the 4 against ANY of these newer movies, especially the B grade wannabe Phantasms! For Phantasm 2b made on a VERY limited budget it stands against movies with millions for special effects (and no scripts!) Siskel says "No plot". WTF???!!! An intricate story spanning 4 movies and over 30 years NO PLOT? Choose 4 yourselves Phans, movie critics should be the first people to stand in unemployment lines in these poor economic times!! I will take Reggie Bannister and Phamily ANY day to another Oscar winning actor and story about the importance of underwater basket weaving or whatever!!Peace 2 the Red Dimension, i'm out!!

When you go to a museum there isn't a paid guy there saying', "Oh no, u don't want 2c the Picasso, he sucks!" Just wanted to chime in on this part real quick-- yes actually, art critics are very real. In fact they're even more guilty of the issues you have with film critics, because they can determine what has worth and what doesn't. It's a terrible truth about the world we live in!

Hi Phans out there in Phantasmville, prymal here. I just realized i 4got something in my rant (see above rant for details). Siskel and herbert, or bert and ernie or whoever the hell they are said Phantasm 2 was made for money.... ARE YOU F**KING KIDDING ME???!!! Apparently the large one has never paid attention "in the balcony" watching the garbage they pass off as good! One of the truly great things with Phantasm is the way Coscarelli and Phamily are in touch with the Phans, it's not only about money!! When was the last time anyone saw angelin jolie show up at a tomb raider convention and sign autographs and give fans a pic or the time of day?? One of the MOST admirable thing i have ever heard of in hollywood is the fact that Coscarelli will not, repeat WILL NOT(!!) RECAST for Phantasm 5!! yeah, wouldn't that be great, "Phantasm 5-starring shyla labough as Mike, Brad Pitt as Regg, and betty white as The Tall Man (he, he betty white as...oh yeay, back to the rant..hrmmphh...) ANYWAY you Phans get the point! hollywood, you can keep michael bay and spielberg and we'll keep Coscarelli and Phamily!!!

Siskel and herbert, or bert and ernie or whoever the hell they are said Phantasm 2 was made for money....! I remember watching Siskel & Ebert back in the mid 80's. I didn't always agree with them either but I loved to watch the show to see the movie previews. Back then we didn't have the internet so that was the only way to watch the previews. I think at times they didn't agree with each other either. With all due respect re: Roger Ebert, he is suffering from thyroid cancer and had to have his lower jaw removed and lost all ability to speak, eat and drink. It's very sad to see him today. Gene Siskel passed away due to complications of brain surgery back in '99.

All of this type of material needs to be copied to a DVD.
