Scream Factory goes sphere-crazy with PHANTASM II (review)

The ball is back in Don Coscarelli's big budget Universal Pictures sequel to his 1979 cult classic.  Grown-up Michael is released from a sanitarium and sets about hunting The Tall Man with his friend Reggie and a girl who also has a psychic connection to the Tall Man.  This bigger sequel has more dwarves, more graves, more gore, and more balls!
