The Phantom

Movie Monday: The Phantom

Patrick Forbes

‘The Phantom’ follows the 1983 case of Carlos DeLuna, a 21-year-old Texan man who was arrested for murder despite his ongoing pleas of innocence — all the way up until his 1989 execution. According to the NY Times, Forbes uses “an effective blend of reconstructions and interviewees to take viewers through the night of the killing.” A haunting but necessary watch, this powerful documentary serves to expose the pitfalls of the deeply flawed American justice system.
