Phantoms (1998)

Phantoms: Directed by Joe Chappelle. With Peter O’Toole, Rose McGowan, Joanna Going, Liev Schreiber. In the peaceful town of Snowfield, Colorado something evil has wiped out the community. And now, its up to a group of people to stop it, or at least get out of Snowfield alive.

“Phantoms is one of my favorite horror/sci-fi films of all time (which is saying a lot). Iu0026#39;ve seen it several times and I find it still is entertaining. I actually purchased the book after I viewed the film and now it is one of my favorite books as well. Ben Affleck is good as the hero in the film. This was made before he made it as a big time star. Even Peter Ou0026#39; Toole does a very credible job as a u0026quot;National Enquireru0026quot; type reporter. The tension is well placed throughout the movie. What I really enjoyed about the story was as the audience you didnu0026#39;t really see what the creature(s) looked like during the movie. You were given bits and pieces (pardon the pun) of this u0026quot;monsteru0026quot; throughout the movie. Even as the movie ended it left it wide open for a sequel, which probably wonu0026#39;t happen because it did not do well at the box office. However, if another movie company did decide to make a sequel, direct to video, I would be the first to rent it. I really did not want the movie to end. That is how much I enjoyed it. Iu0026#39;m sure you will to.”
