EARLY ACCESS: Phantasm II (1988) | Movie Reaction | First Time Watching

Never said this was better. Just said it was a more polished and fun film for my taste given it had a larger Universal budget.

Billy DuBose

I get all that and not saying he shouldn't emote with those circumstances. I'm talking about how "attached" he is to his brothers hip throughout the film, never listening to what his brother tells him to do and how annoying he came off. Also just the way he went about the character just never personally "clicked" with me. And on top of that, I'm just not a fan of "know-it-all" kids for plot armor convenience. Different strokes for different folks.

I saw this in the theater when it came out. It caught a lot of hate for replacing the main character with a different actor

Michael Tuffin

Uh... "clingy" (@Rockstar's comment)??? He had just lost 2 parents, a family friend, a brother, AND a pet dog (the photograph in the last scene) in various tragic deaths... AND he was a child trapped in a never-ending dreamworld where catharsis and closure will potentially elude him for eternity.

People who say this is better than the original = people who police pizza toppings (tomato is a fruit, it has fruit acids / fruit toppings on a pizza is like putting carrots in a salad or peanut butter on toast or lemon in tea). Same with Hellraiser II.
