Last October, the classic horror series ended with Ravager. While not perfect, the last half of the fifth Phantasm is highly satisfying for true “Phans.” Sure, the first half sucks but color me happy with the film overall. And now with this amazing limited Arrow set, the movie can be relived over and over again. Throw in a load of extras and consider this baby pre-ordered. Pre-order your copy of the Phantasm Series Collection at Amazon UK today!
