Your Favourite Vincent Price Horror Film?
Mine would have to be 'The Last Man On Earth'.
What about you?

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.

As always Jethro, your command of the English language is just what I have grown to expect from you.

The Bat, is also one of his lesser known films that I particularly like.

And the Raven is good, but not so much horror.

Eh, its basically Murder, She Wrote. With Vincent Price!
On a somewhat related note, who should play Egghead in the next Batman movie?

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!
