Score: 65

from 3 reviewers

Review Date:

Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead on Blu-ray offers excellent video and audio quality, but lacks the extensive extras found in the box set edition.

Video: 75

Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead boasts a terrific 1080p transfer with vibrant color reproduction and strong detail clarity in its 1.78:1 aspect ratio. While housed on a BD-25, it maintains similar video and audio quality to the Collection Blu-ray, delivering deep blacks and immersive depth without major artifacts.

Audio: 72

The Blu-ray's audio presentation, featuring English 5.1 and 2.0 DTS-HD tracks, delivers a clean and immersive experience, with dynamic surround sound particularly effective for ambient noises and action scenes, though some find low frequencies could be more punchy.

Extra: 37

Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead’s standalone Blu-ray by Well Go USA disappointingly lacks key supplements from previous releases, limited to a brief behind-the-scenes video, a short deleted scene, a trailer, and audio commentary by A. Michael Baldwin and Angus Scrimm.

Movie: 65

Well Go USA revisits the Phantasm franchise with a no-frills BD-25 release of "Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead," maintaining solid video and audio quality but omitting additional supplements. The film, featuring a compelling blend of sci-fi terror, gore, and action, marks Coscarelli's triumphant return to creative control.
