In Reply to: Ben Affleck movie called Phantoms posted by Stormin Norman on June 23, 2001 at 10:15:06:
I don't know why but all the books by Dean Koontz turned into movies have been substandard. Very few even are considered major motion pictures. Phantoms was one of the few. As a movie itself (not having read the book) its a C. The book is one of my favorite of all times. Affleck and Ricci spice it a bit but it still falls on its face compared to what it could have been.
: This is cool. I was out at Tower Records in Shibuya in Japan and I found a movie that I did not know that Ben Affleck was in. It is called Phantoms. It is FUCKING COOL! I read the book about 6 months ago and really liked it. Scary as hell, I tell you. But I was tripped out when I found out that they made it into a movie. You guys ought to check it out.
