1971, Vincent Price's 100th movie.

I saw this movie when I was very young... I think UnkBill exposed me to it.

I haven't seen it in 20 years, but I went ahead and bought the DVD.

I didn't remember the funky 70's vibe... but they kept it pretty light.  

*light spoilers*











Vincent Price plays Dr. Phibes, a man who lost his wife in a car accident.  Except she didn't die in the car... she died after 6 minutes on the operating table.  Dr. Phibes blames the doctors for her death, and exacts her revenge in very... strange... ways.








*end of spoilers.*


This is a good flick to buy if you want to flesh out your movie collection.

The trailor for the movie Saw "borrows" one of the bits of this movie.

I'd say this movie would be ripe for a remake, but damn... there is no Vincent Price, today.

Those are some of the worst made movies. English type B movies but to me they were like cult classics.
Leisher from being around here might be the only one that remembers Sir Graves Gastly. Or the _ scratching glass turning blue. (Elvira with the tits took over and made national after that) He showed mummy films on saterday at noon. We were so scared. How silly.
