Phantasm 3: Lord of the Dead (English) (Blu-ray)

Growing up, Phantasm 2 was developmentally important to me. The ripping off of Evil Dead 2 while at the same time heavily inspiring the future TV show Supernatural made the Phantasm universe part of my soul. Somehow I missed this one and was so happy for the opportunity to experience it for the first time. Reggie is up to his typical antics as he collects a band of companions along the road in his pursuit of the tall man. The schlock is perfect, the characters are very memorable, and Reggie is Reggie. Highly recommended.

taking place two years after part 2, Mike awakes from a coma and is joined once again with Reggie and his dead brother Jody who is now a floating sphere against the Tall Man. Angus Scrimm plays the evil mortician to a tee. But I think Reggie Bannister steals the show as he did in the previous entries. Michael Baldwin is now an adult but his performance has always been on the dull side. the blue ray itself is clear and gorgeous to look at.

A fair follow up to the first two sequels. I'm glad they brought back the original actor A. Michael Baldwin back into the story. I like this movie to some extent. The first half of the movie is enjoyable, good action, but then it starts getting irritating due to some bad casting choices. Not fun at all, but it is serviceable.
