Leonard Nimoy is wonderful in this one man play
Mr. Nimoy did a wonderful thing when he brought this play to many cities around the USA. When it was released on DVD I had to have a copy for my own library. He entertains and educates in this one man play. I knew only that Vincent had been declared a mad man who cut off his ear, but this DVD help me see the tortured soul inside this great artist. He makes a lovely statement during his play ...

The Masque of the Red Death / The Premature Burial

Vincent Price, Hazel Court

MGM (Video & DVD), 2002

Still crazy after all these years!
Masque of the Red Death was my absolutel favorite of all the Vincent Price movies. I first saw it as part of a double feature (remember those?) along with an Annette and Frankie surfing movie. Well, I have little memory of the content of that beach-party film, but Masque of the Red Death has remained a life-long favorite! Bunus! It's a double-feature again, this time without the sand and surf, ...

Great Films by Horrors Greatest. Disc Breakdown Below.
This box set is a great add to any film lover's collection. The set is also great for those who are interested in Price's work but have yet to see much of it. I suggest watching the films by date. The last two films in the set are the most autobiographical of Price particularly Madhouse which has flash backs within the movie of actual Vincent Price films some of which you will have seen if you ...

Gabriella Trsek, John Hurt

New Video Group, 2005

Magnificent
As a painter and student of art history, I see a LOT of movies and read a lot of books about art and artists. This film is a triumph. It is visually stunning - you could turn off the sound and enjoy the images alone. John Hurt is the perfect voice -- his voiceover is made up entirely of selected portions of Van Gogh's letters. (Complete, unabridged archives of the letters are available on-line, ...

The Fall of the House of Usher /The Pit and the Pendulum

Vincent Price, Mark Damon

American International Pictures (AIP), 2005

From the king of classic horror...
This double-feature is amazing! Both movies feature fan-favorite Vincent Price as the star, whether he is playing a menacing widower gone mad, or a menacing older brother attempting to bring justice to his fallen sister. You'll be lured in by the great acting skills of Price and the classic tales of Poe don't ever lose their charm either. Movies might be a bit long, so book a whole night in ...

Monsieur Vincent

Pierre Fresnay, Aimé Clariond

Lions Gate, 2008

Truly a classic.
Although awareness of this film is rather minimal today, it deservedly won an Academy Award in 1948 as Best Foreign Film. Rather than sickingly sweet, as so many films with a religious motif tend to be (e.g. "Brother Sun, Sister Moon"), this one has a grit, irony, and wry humor that holds up under repeated showings. If you liked "A Man For All Seasons," there is a good chance you will like this ...

Tales of Terror/Twice Told Tales (Midnite Movies Double Feature)

Vincent Price, Sebastian Cabot

MGM (Video & DVD), 2005

A HORROR Fan delight
In the 1960's, Roger Corman directed and produced many of Edgar Allan Poe's novels and short stories to the silver screen. The cast were usually Vincent Price, Peter Lorre and Basil Rathbone with a few appearances by Boris Karloff (The Raven is one of those and is worth every penny if you find it). This double feature of Poe Tales are suited for these masters of fright and their wonderful ...

The Roof, The Roof, The Roof is on Fire.. (dvd features below)
We don't need no water let the mother fer burn said Vincent Price's partner in the unprofitable wax museum that he sets ablaze for the insurance money. The price of the insurance money is no match for Price's revenge which is priceless. Prof. Henry Jarrod (Price), who was thought to be killed in the blaze was only badly burned and now wants to rebuild his wax museum with a little help from ...

Vincent: TV Series

Ray Winstone

Image Entertainment, 2007

Vincent is Top of the Crime Series
There are two trends in crime series right now: The fast-edit, over-anxious, grim style complete with blue light effects and bad literary quotations; and the quirky, character-driven show featuring a detective who may have to stand on his head to solve the crime. Vincent is neither of these. Refreshingly free of morose moments and filled with fascinating people whose experiences ring true, ...

Vincent and Theo: Brotherly Love of the Intense Kind
I have one favorite scene in the film VINCENT AND THEO, the late Robert Altman's highly acclaimed masterwork on the life of Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh. It is a short brutal scene in the first half of the movie when Van Gogh's model and mistress is leaving him: she slaps him witless, and then kisses him hard on the mouth before storming out of the apartment. That double action of pained ...

The Mistakes on the Midnite Movies DVD Below. (Haunted Palace Based on Lovecraft not Poe)
The Midnite Movies DVDs are great. They provide us with some great classics in horror at a fair price (as long as they stay in print) and a lot of the times you get two great movies on one disc as seen here. The quality is usually great as well. However from my experience Midnite Movies are famous for mistakes and misprints on the back of their DVDs. I don't mind, it's kind of like when your ...

Just Great!
I've seen these two movies many years ago, in theater, and they still good today in DVD. Sort of black humor. Just Great!

Both are goot, the Raven is the gem
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 - ...

Wonderful Series
Wow, this was a wonderful show on BBC. I loved it and waited for it every week until it was gone. I kept hoping it would return for a new season. But I am at least happy that it is on DVD. It is an intelligent series.

Price, Lee

Pop Flix, 2008

Excellent Value For A Low Price
First, I'll quickly address the movie quality. For a couple of the movies, it's a bit patchy, but for the price, it's not bad. The movies: House On Haunted Hill - An excellent old Vincent Price movie. By itself it would be worth the price. It's a bit cheesy, but it has wonderful dialogue and interesting effects. Last Man On Earth - Everyone on earth, except for Vincent Price (hence the ...

The Tomb of Ligeia / An Evening of Edgar Allan Poe

"I will always be your wife. Your ONLY wife..."
"The Tomb of Ligeia" was the last of Roger Corman's eight Edgar Allen Poe adaptations, and he went all out. Instead of the usual cheap studio setting (although these were used for all the interior scenes), this movie had breathtaking photography of the English countryside, as well as a creepy graveyard. I consider "The Tomb of Ligeia" to be one of Corman's very best, if not his finest, Poe ...

Oh My Gosh- SCREAM FOR YOUR LIVES!!!
Bill Castle's 1959 scream flick "The Tingler" is a brilliant pick for your Halloween party. It has everything you want to make you scream- including Vinny Price's voice commands, towards the end, to scream. (This film, perhaps my favorite Castle production, was producer Castle's next horror project after "The House on Haunted Hill"...also very scary.) You'll want to watch this cult movie ...

Beautifully Horrible
"THE BOYS OF ST. VINCENT" Compelling and Beautiful Horror Amos Lassen and Cinema Pride I recently rediscovered this gem of a film which was originally made for Canadian television and I was surprised it didn't resurface when we went through that period of the abuses of the Roman Catholic church. "The Boys of St. Vincent" (New Yorker Films) is about a group of men who return the ...
