Your Favourite Vincent Price Horror Film?
Mine would have to be 'The Last Man On Earth'.
What about you? |
Damn you took my answer!
|
Good choice. I'm going to go with House On Haunted Hill. Its cheesy and silly but I love how funny and suave Vincent is in it, he's my favourite actor because he always could take a stupid script and make it work. Look at the Roger Corman Poe movies, they sucked if Vincent wasn't in them. Well, sucked a lot more.

My second fav, as my first was mentioned by the OP already, is The Fly.
|
hi. may i know if how can you make your own thread?
|
The Bat, is also one of his lesser known films that I particularly like.
|
And the Raven is good, but not so much horror.
|
Dr. Phibes!... especially the first one.

On a somewhat related note, who should play Egghead in the next Batman movie? http://www.dialbforblog.com/archives/456/egghead.jpg |

That damn frog mask death scene freaked me out when I was kid. Was that in the first one? |

Diary of a Madman = pure win
|
House of Wax, definitely. It was the first VP film I ever saw, and it got me hooked on that particular kind of melodramatic horror. Plus, it's got Carolyn Jones in it! Carolyn Jones!
|
Wasn't House Of Wax the first 3D movie? I know they have that guy with the pong ball thingy to be completely gratuitous and gimmicky, and get a LOOK AT THE EFFECTS! reaction. So its like the first Avatar?
|
I think the earliest was in the 1920's...but House of Wax was the first Warner Bros. 3-D flick.
|
I have a 3D copy of the original Hunchback of Notre Dame (the silent one with Lon Chaney).
|
I'm going to have to agree with the last man on earth. The idea of Militant vampires still intrigues me.
|
For pure building of suspense in a classic horror film, I like "The Pit and the Pendulum." But for showcasing Vincent Price's acting skills in a ghoulishly over-the-top performance, I love "The Abominable Doctor Phibes."
And for bonus points, my favorite Vincent Price performance in an internet short clip; I absolutely adore THIS! |
Oh my mistake, House Of Wax was the first 3D colour feature from a major American studio. 3D films have been around since 1890! Wow!

That was quite interesting! Thanks, Saya, I learnt something new today.

Your right |
I personally like both "The Last Man on Earth" and "House on Haunted Hill". They're both my favorite of his that he starred in. Others would include Edward Scissorhands and Vincent. both by Tim Burton.
|
I can't just pick one so i will have to say The last man on earth,house of wax,house on haunted hill ,vincent,Dr. phibes rises again,the abominable dr. phibes,The raven,The bat
|
I think the House of Wax as several have said, although my favourites are House on Haunted Hill and The Pit and the Pendulum. I have a thing for bad camp.
Vincent Price I adore you. |
I liked The Tingler and Cry of the Banshee. He was great in Dr. Phibes.
|
I would have to go with The Tingler. Drop acid and get so scared that monsters come out of your spine? Not bad for the 50's. Plus they promoted the movie by putting vibrators in the some of the seats in the theaters so it would make more people scream. Classic stuff.
|
Tales of Terror! As in The Facts in the case of M. ...
No wait. Actually, The Comedy of Terrors. Vincent Price and Peter Lorre and superb. Too many hilarious scenes to mention. |
Return of the mother fucking fly
|
I love House of Wax because it has both Vincent Price and Carolyn Jones in it! Believe it or not she plays the squeaky-voiced blond in the corset at the beginning. ;)
|
My favourite Vincent Price films are ...
The Abominible Dr. Phibes Theatre Of Blood Dr. Phibes Rises Again Witchfinder General (always get that Cathedral song about this film in my head when I mention this film) :P Grausamkeit, I just bought `House Of Wax` today on DVD, and I`am really looking forwards to seeing it later !!!. :) |
