PHANTASM never fails to capture my attention and imagination. In 1979 I listened to the soundtrack before I could see the film due to its R-rating and my age. And by now I know this movie’s sound by heart. I can’t say that about a lot of movies.

First time watch. Prime’s print is quite good. Twice-Told Tales. I appreciate Vincent Price. A lot. Earlier was my annual screening of The Lady In White.

The final image… Watching “Dead and Buried” and after all these years I still think it’s wonderful and also sadly lacking. How does that work? It’s in my library so it must work. #horrorsky #retrohorrormovies #deadandburied

Prophecy (1979) is my first film of the high holidays. I was surprised that it still (mostly) works. Read my review here…
