    Movie Moan Audio Commentary - 'The Phantom' (1996)

    It's time to SLAM EVIL as Phil Gee and Randall Maynard bring you their much promised, much anticipated audio commentary for one of the most under-appreciated films in American cinema - 'The Phantom'.

    Over the course of 100 breathless minutes (and we could have gone on longer), we try to explain, without snark or irony, why it's such a charming little film that really succeeds in so many ways.  Phil explains why it's the best thing Billy Zane has ever done.  We explain what a day in the life of Xander Drax must be like, just how delightful all the supporting characters are, can't believe that a wolf and a horse are able to talk to each other, keep getting Cary Tagawa's evil pirate character mixed up with Shang Tsung from 'Mortal Kombat', and we even figure out that the Phantom dies at the end of the film.

    Obviously, this is designed to be watched as a proper commentary in synch with the film but you can watch or listen to it by itself if that's your bag and you know the film by heart like we do.  Enjoy!
