In the bakery, when the timer goes off, it makes a bell sound. The timer is an electronic timer that makes a beeping noise when it runs out.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "Chaos in the flesh..."

This is a good action/suspense/horror film. It is highlighted by solid performances by Peter O'Toole and the rest of the cast and a well written story/screenplay by Dean Koontz. These highlights are nicely complemented by what I thought was excellent 'spooky' direction, eerie cinematography, and really scary music, sound effects, and special effects. It reminded me of a few of my favorite horror movies. I give Phantoms a B+, check it out ASAP.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A creepy horror tale.

I just finished watching this film and was very surprised that I hadn't heard of it before. Phantoms is very well done. It is creepy and suspenseful with out being cliché like most horror movies are these days. The special effects are good and used sparingly and there isn't over the top gore. Though there are gory parts which add to the very tense atmosphere. The acting is pretty good though not exceptional. I was easily able to believe in the characters except for Ben Affleck but that may be a personal problem. The acting in the beginning however was very forced which made me slightly skeptical about the movie. Don't worry, hang in there for the first 5 minuets as the creepiness starts right away. I really liked this movie and strongly recommend it.

This is a jumpy and surprisingly thoughtful horror. It really made me jump a few times. I was on the edge of my seat with fear at other points.

I was on the edge of my seat with fear at other points. The suspense is not the best although it is done really well. The story is clever and thoughtful (for a horror anyway). It was very reminiscent of The Exorcist (1973), The Thing (1982) and Prince of Darkness (1987) drawing inspiration from all three. It also felt like a Stephen King novel. This reminded me very much of Event Horizon (1997) - they are both films that make you jump a lot but leave little impression. It has a very nineties style but with high production values, this feels bigger than most horror films. The story has excellent pacing and the acting is perfect but there is sadly something missing. This is worth watching for the tense scares that are present and for the idea of an enemy to all other species that learns from them. Expand
