What I learned from PHANTASM

[halloweenshape]

1. You can escape your bedroom with a shotgun shell, scotch tape, a thumb tack, and a hammer.

2. Cemeteries get blondes wet.

3. The Lady in Lavender needs to learn the true meaning of double penetration.

4. There's a reason taking balls to the face is discouraged.

5. Watch out for weird guys in hats sittin in the dark corners of bars.

6. Lice is a bitch.

7. You don't aim a gun at a man unless you intend to shoot him. And you don't shoot a man unless you intend to kill him. No warning shots. Warning shots are bullshit! You shoot to kill or you don't shoot at all.

8. Hemicudas fuckin rock!

9. Don't fear.

10. The Tall Man would make a good salesman. He's got brass balls.

Oh yeah and if you put a camcorder on the front of your handlebars you're pretty much gonna fall off your motorbike (especially if you see THE TALL MAN perving on you from behind the gravestones). :D

Weren't the sequels full of characters shooting off warning shots--especially that little shit in part 3?

Despite its stumbles I love the movies. Wish I could get them all on dvd.

3- Dont mess with a pissed off Ice Cream Vendor.

4- Jody kissed the Tall Man. Eeeeewwwww.

5- Blind Psychic ladies can make things dissapear.

6- Slimy hands will pop out of the mud to grab you when you are following the Tall Man.

7- Morgues can turn into spaceships and suddenly dissapear into thin air.

Yeah I got the novel at a con pre-signed by Don Coscarelli. Then I had Reggie sign it. He also signed a pic of him with the quad-barrell that said "Keep your eye on the target dude!" and my DVD "Phantasmic dreams dude!" Great guy!
