Rating:  - An oldie but a goodie.
If you enjoy a good laugh, then don't hesitate to put this movie on.
Macabre yes. Horrific yes. Distasteful yes, but all in the nicest of possible ways.
Here is a cast of actors, who can do just that, ACT.
This is the real meaning of entertainment.
You will not be viewing personalities up on screen who can barely get their lines out due to the stress of whether the camera has their best side or not.
The actors in this movie so relish their roles and perform with such ... Read More

I enjoyed Vincent Price's movies since I was a kid. My favorites are of course the Dr. Phibes flicks Vincent Price: MGM Scream Legends Collection (The Abominable Dr. Phibes / Tales of Terror / Theater of Blood / Madhouse / Witchfinder General / Dr. Phibes Rises Again / Twice Told Tales) and The Raven. Featuring the horror master's of their time - Price, Karloff, Lorre - and a new actor - Nicholson. It was 1963, and Roger Corman was working with Price on their string of popular adaptations of Poe's stories. ... Read More

I don't think anyone should pay these prices for this dvd.
The films are excellent! But, don't be fooled. This is still available out there, you just have to do a little extra work to get it.
I found mine through FYE (fye.com). Ask the associates for help finding it at the desk, it cannot be special ordered, but they can try to find it through distribution or home office. DO NOT PAY 50 or 80 dollars when you can pay less than 20. These people are seriously just trying to take your money. ... Read More

This is the best material that Corman ever produced. After years of turning out low budget but somewhat artsy horror films, with the indispensible Vincent Price, Corman decided to go camp. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that it all happened by accident. Maybe Price showed up on the set one day a little tipsy, blew a couple of his lines and caused Corman to have an inspiration. Whatever happened these two movies bring out the true Vincent Price: a comically macabre villian who both scares and humors you at ... Read More
Rating: - The Good, the Bad, and the Horrible
These two movies belong together. Not because of the plots, which are actually dissimilar, but because of the great cast, headed the three great figures in mystery, Vincent Price, Boris Karloff, and Peter Lorre. With only a passing bow to Edgar Allen Poe, these three lead us on a merry chase across the landscape of fantasy on slippery slope of comedy with the brakelines cut. Jack Nicholson is left hopelessly upstaged while Basil Rathbone valiantly struggles to keep up(not to mention stay alive). Keep your eye ... Read More
