To coincide with the 40th Anniversary of the horror classic Phantasm, director Don Coscarelli is announcing today that distributor Well Go USA Entertainment will release this Fall a new Limited Collectors Edition Blu-ray set of the complete Phantasm film series, which will include an officially authorized, full-scale replica of the original Phantasm killer sphere prop.
Fans have been clamoring for another Blu-ray box set, since the previous box set sold out instantly and many were left empty-handed.
The “Phantasm Sphere Collection,” in addition to all the Phantasm films and previous supplemental materials, will be packed with new extras. The centerpiece will be a meticulous 4K restoration of 1988’s Phantasm II, personally supervised by Coscarelli. Other phantastic extras include a newly-created Dolby Atmos track of the original Phantasm (by Post Haste Digital) and a new, longer feature-length documentary on the making of Phantasm: Ravager, with more to come.
The Phantasm Sphere Collection will be flying into stores this Halloween season.
