What's a better double header: Phantasm and Phantasm II or Creepshow and Creepshow 2
Tough, but I'd go the Creepshows.

I'd go the first two Phantasms. Creepshow 2 is mid at best tbh, aside from that man-eating plant.

Aiming to get in 22 or so more movies in, and have at least three set aside specifically for Halloween (including one of the best movies in the Halloween series). Should be a fun final handful of days.

I liked Evil Laugh, but I've only ever seen it get either negative reviews or just meh.

I remember it being decently fun, though it's been a while since I;ve seen it (at least nine years).

i can see the basic elements shared between this and the first film. i think they were handled far better in the original. i don't know what of this film was more like the book. but there was no quist here. so boo to that! :P
