Phantasm II. 1988.

When Mike is released from a psychiatric unit when he believes the things that happened where his imagination, he teams up with Reggie and go on the hunt for The Tall Man and a girl who has link to Mike.

This was a throw off direct sequel only for the reason a different actor played Mike which seemed out of context due to Universal studios interference, but they did give out a bigger budget. There is more action sequence involved with the horror.

The first half of the film does seem to be like a road movie with Mike and Reggie going from town to town that have been totally wiped out and gone through a riot and post apocalyptic. Reggie Bannister and James Le Gros team up to take on Angus Scrimm's Tall Man for another showdown with a darker toned Background Score.
