It’s a big week for fans of Don Coscarelli’s cult horror series, Phantasm, which began with the original film in 1979. That spooky, surreal tale of the Tall Man—cinema’s most sinister undertaker—just got a stunning restoration, thanks to mega-fan J.J. Abrams. And the fifth film, Phantasm: Ravager, also arrives to wrap up the series, featuring the final performance of Tall Man actor Angus Scrimm.
