The Phantom

“Slam evil!”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 55, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
Billy Zane puts on purple and heads out after magical skulls, as any sensible jungle hero would. The stunts and handsome sets do real work, while the dialogue keeps a playful wink handy. This is knowingly old-fashioned pulp, best enjoyed with a fondness for wildly impractical adventures.
