TUESDAY NIGHT TRASH
TNT182: Phantom of the Mall: Eric’s Revenge (1989, AFGA)
We are bringing back a really satisfying variation on the Phantom story that we originally screened on laserdisc back in 2018. PHANTOM OF THE MALL: ERIC’S REVENGE features juicy supporting roles for Lake Highlands’ own Morgan Fairchild, Pauly Shore (pre-MTV Beach House/Weazin the juice’), Ken Foree from Dawn of the Dead and even the creepy-stare guy from The Uninvited, another TNT legendary flick! But don’t just take our word for it….
“High school sweethearts Eric Matthews and Melody Austin are in love. But their romance is cut tragically short when Eric dies in a fire. One year later, Melody is trying to move on with her life and works at the newly built Midwood Mall. But the mall, which stands on the very site of Eric’s former home, has an uninvited guest: a shadowy, scarred figure who is hellbent on getting revenge against the mall’s crooked developers! Featuring star turns from MTV’s Pauly Shore, Morgan Fairchild (DALLAS), and Ken Foree (DAWN OF THE DEAD), PHANTOM OF THE MALL: ERIC’S REVENGE is the finest slasher variant on THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA ever made. If you don’t believe us, wait until the scene where a bloody eyeball shows up in someone’s frozen yogurt.” – from AGFA
