The Abominable Dr. Phibes

Thursday, March 20, 2008

Doing some follow up on our Price is Right Double Feature from back in December, Andy and I watched another movie where Vincent Price kills off a group of people one-by-one in very strange ways. This movie looks great, with a lot of flashy colors and weird, ornate sets. And it contains a lot of weird details, like the fact that Price is some sort of zombie-man can only speak through a microphone attached to a hole in his throat. And he has this weird wind-up jazz band that play songs for him. And he kills people in odd, animal-themed ways. There's also a nice sense of goofy dark humor, and Joseph Cotton plays a major role. Not a great horror movie, but an enjoyable strange one.
