** The spheres in ''Phantasm II'' are worse, especially the golden one. The Funeral Attendant's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onbZemb4CmQ&ab_channel=StepfordCuckoo death]] by the golden sphere is a horrific death that rivals the first movie's brutal death, which is pictured up at the right.

* The scene where Mike flees to the mineshaft and runs into the Lady in Lavender is unsettling. All she does is stand there, still as a statue as she watches Mike's every movement, holding a knife with a [[SlasherSmile terrifying smile]]. [[NothingIsScarier Nothing happens, but its still very tense]].

The ''Phantasm'' series is specifically intended to capture the feel of a nightmare. And it succeeds - with flying colors.

** One of the best is from the climax of the first film. We learn that the kid Mike dreamed everything that happened, that his brother died in a car wreck, and there is no Tall Man -- only for Mike to go back to his room [[OhCrap and find the Tall Man waiting there for him]] after discovering [[MirrorScare the Tall man's reflection in a mirror on his closet door.]]

** The slow apocalypse taking place over the course of the series. In the first film, the most we see is a set of strange goings-on around a funeral home. In the second, small towns are left deserted as the Tall Man makes his way across the country. By the fifth and final movie, the entire world has fallen to invasion, with giant spheres making short work of the military, the streets full of undead minions and advanced spheres, and even the sky has turned the same shade of red it is in the Tall Man's home dimension.
