Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Leofwine_draca PHANTOM TOWN is a straight-to-video kid's horror movie, shot by Charles Band's Full Moon Pictures studio in Romania. The story is set in the Wild West, where some kids hunting for their missing parents end up in the titular location, full of creepy old cowboys possessed by some kind of green alien goo. What's impressive about this film isn't the slightly nonsensical story or the cheesy scripting, but the film's relatively good staging on what might have been a tiny budget. The sets are good enough to bring a little atmosphere to the proceedings, and the larger-than-life villains are quite memorable.
capkronos Juvenile tale of teen Mike (John Patrick White), his genius younger brother Arnie (Taylor Locke, son of the producer, and worse than most kid actors) and little sister Cindy (Lauren Summers), who receive a weird phone call from their parents one night. Mom and dad (Belinda J. Montgomery and Jim Metzler) never come home so the kids track them down to a ghost town in some kind of time freeze (it's 1882 there). The town is full of alien cowboys that spit green goo, people wrapped in cocoons underground in catacombs and strange symbols painted on walls. The ghost of an old Indian shows up to help. The western town set is good and a handful of surprising effects (a mutant sheriff, a giant eye monster, an evil book that grows legs and runs) keep this watchable for younger horror fans, who are the target audience anyway. It was filmed in the U.S. and Romania from the same production company that brought us TEENAGE SPACE VAMPIRES.
rsrungaram Phantom Town is a great movie, It includes, comedy, adventure and most of all HORROR!!!! My eyes where glued to the TV screen from credits to credits. The acting is just mind boggling and the movie has cutting edge special effects. One my memorable moments of the film is when one characters utters "wow! talk about ugly, this thing is worse than my math teacher!!! Hahah. Cracked me up till the end!!! I highly recommend watching this film, however the film is so amazing that it can't be found on DVD or it's hard find on VHS at local video store, and it's to scary for HBO and ICONTROL so you must order it via internet." This movie is so amazing, It inspires me to make all my films,If you want! Horror,Comedy and Adventure, please take the time to order this great movie" stated James Edward Seyer, and aspiring filmmaker.To some it all up. This movie is amazing! and to note, The music and score is awesome!
super marauder This is one of those movies I rented because it sounded good by the description on the tape case, but after I watched it....well I just don't know. I try not to bash a movie for what it is not, so here is the problem. If it was trying to cash in on the Friday the 13th, or the Nightmare on Elm Street series, I hate it. But, if the idea behind it was to give kids under thirteen a scary movie, then it was pretty good. The plot was interesting, and the special effects were a little cheesy, so little kids won't be grossed out. Something else too, I do like the idea of the kids rescuing the parents for a change. Love it, or hate, one could say it at least little kids might enjoy it, but if you as an adult want so see a good shocker, don't get this one.
