"If you take the film at face value, then it's this incredibly fun and surreal retelling of classic stories like The Phantom of the Opera and The Picture of Dorian Grey with fantastic music and a wild 1970's feel. If you look a little bit deeper, you'll realize what makes Phantom of the Paradise all the more terrifying when it comes to monopolizing music and movie charts and how this obsession with an individual's depravity of morals could ultimately lead to in our society." - The Wolfman Cometh
