I am confident this new 4K remaster will be part of an amazing Phantasm bluray set.

Instead of waiting around for this, I decided to take each of the released images of "Phantasm Restored" and compare it with the same shots from the DVDs US Anchor Bay
UK Anchor Bay
MGM
US Anchor Bay
UK Anchor Bay
MGM
US Anchor Bay
UK Anchor Bay
MGM
The colors of it look OK, but the first two scenes appear to be really bright.

I planted a seed in Coscarelli's head (and in Baldwin's and Thornbury's, etc) at the Flashback Convention here in Chicago the other year. At least I hope I did. They all liked my idea. I asked them (Coscarelli especially) about releasing a special disc with all of cut footage from the original Phantasm, outtakes, behind the scene material, etc. In other words, every single minute of Phantasm that's ever been filmed that we've never seen before. I know they had hours of extra material we've never seen. I explained that there was no need to remaster it in HD or anything. Just transfer raw footage to DVD. That would be cheap enough to be worth it, and what true Phantasm phan would not jump on such a DVD at any price? Hell, they could slap a $100 price tag on it and I'd be pre-ordering it!
I hope that idea stuck in his head and that we end up seeing it.

So for anyone keeping up, here's what's been changed to the 4K remaster so far:
-New sphere in some shots (practical effect, not CGI) -Yellow paint bucket removed in one scene (though it can still be seen to the naked eye) -Fishing line digitally remove when sphere impales the Tall Man's assistant (it should be noted that the black dot on the sphere in the next shot is still present despite the released preview image) -And this I noticed today; the scene where Michael puts his hand in a box at the fortune teller's house and struggles to get it out while her granddaughter tells him "Don't fear." zooms in slowly shot after shot until he gets his hand free.
