Review of Dr. Phibes Rises Again (1972) by J D — 01 Nov 2007

Oh, Dr. Phibes, what won't you do for your dear Victoria? I accidentally got shipped the double feature instead of just "The Abominable Dr. Phibes", so it was a pleasant surprise to discover there was a sequel.

The sequel is just as entertaining as the original, and Vincent Price camps it up even more than he did in "Abominable", if that's possible. Both are fun movies that don't take themselves too seriously with some gruesome, creative deaths thrown in as well.

I've not seen too many of Price's horror pics, but these two now have my interest piqued. I'll definitely be seeking out some more flicks like this.
