Advantages: It comes in a cool "phantasm sphere", which contains four good films - and a bonus disc! Disadvantages: This series may not be for your run-of-the-mill horror fan - it's a cult type of series!

A. Michael Baldwin is replaced in the second film by the annoying James LeGros (Friends, Ally McBeal), but makes his return for the third film thankfully!
Look out for the brilliant splicing of fouttake footage from the original in the fourth part of the series, a great way to end despite ending up in Los Angeles.
