Dr Phibes headlines DVD Drive-In's Monster-Rama

Too bad the UK doesn't have drive-ins like this one that I discovered while catching up with George Reis's excellent reviews over at his DVD Drive-In website.

Earlier this month, the Riverside Drive-In Theatre in Vandergrift, Pennsylvania hosted a two day festival celebrating the best in classic horrors with Vinnie's Phibes films being shown on the second day. What a thrill it must have been to see them in such a setting.

For a pictorial recap, check out Glen Schultzberg's MONSTER DAD Blog.

Next year's Monster-Rama will take place on 7 & 8 September, so hopefully they'll be more Vinnie next year.

Just found this interesting review on the Classic Horror Campaign website. Check it ou if you can.

Madhouse (1974)

Vincent Price narrates The Devil's Triangle (1974)

In the wake of pseudo-scientific works like Chariots of the Gods comes this 1970's documentary exploring the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle, an area of the ocean between Bermuda, Miami and Cuba into where many boats and planes supposedly disappeared under mysterious circumstances.

Now you can watch the documentary in four parts over on my MrPrice07 YouTube channel.

Here's the first part.

Witchfinder General screens tonight at the Alibi Film Club in Dalston, East London - and it's free!

Tonight's the night for the free screening of Michael Reeves' 1968 historical horror at the Alibi Film Club in Dalston, East London preceded by the hokey Blood Beast Terror starring Peter Cushing and Wanda Ventham (whose son happens to be Benedict Cumberpatch).

For your enjoyment, here's the haunting theme from the film.

David Del Valle's Lost Horizons: Beneath the Hollywood Sign

Click here for my review of this entertaining read featuring anecdotes from not only about Vinnie, but also a host of other famous and not-so famous Hollywood legends. Written by David Del Valle who, as VP fans will know, got Price to give his most candid interview in 1988's The Sinister Image.

Irwin Allen's 1957 all-star epic The Story of Mankind comes to DVD (in the US)

Irwin Allen produced this very odd adaptation of Henrik Willem Van Loon's best- selling historical volume, featuring an all-star cast.

A Celestial Tribunal has been convened to decide the fate of the Earth after the invention of nuclear weapons, with The Devil (Vincent Price) and The Spirit of Man (Ronald Colman) debating if humankind should be allowed to continue or be exterminated once and for all.

Both elemental forces present examples of human behavior at its best and worst, including Dennis Hopper as Napoleon, Hedy Lamarr as Joan of Arc, Virginia Mayo as Cleopatra, Peter Lorre as Nero, Edward Everett Horton as Sir Walter Raleigh, and Groucho Marx, Harpo Marx, and Chico Marx as, respectively, Peter Minuit, Sir Isaac Newton, and a monk. A very curious find, indeed.

Released through Warner Bros on demand Archive Collection label.

Would you believe, I couldn't find a clip of Vincent on YouTube. Will have to upload one soon, in the meantime here's Dennis Hopper as Napoleon.

Witchfinder General screens for free at the Alibi Film Club in East London on August 15

I'm currently writing a post about the many versions of this cult classic that is now available to genre fans, paying particular attention as to how the new UK blu-ray release from Odeon Entertainment compares with Metrodome's 2001 UK DVD release.

But before I launch that, I though I might give London-based Vincent Price fans the heads up on a free screening of Michael Reeves' 1968 historical horror on August 15 at the Alibi Film Club in Dalston, East London.

For your enjoyment, here's the haunting theme from the film.

Watch Vincent Price in the ultra-rare 1974 documentary Death Trap

Death Trap (aka The Tender Trap), 1974
Oxford Scientific Films
Written, produced and directed by Hugh Falkus, Bill Travers, James Hill

In four parts, here's an extremely rare documentary hosted by Vincent Price and featuring some extraordinary footage of carnivorous plants, shot by Oxford Scientific Films.

Watch it now on my YouTube Channel at MrPrice07.


Here's the original blurb from the VHS cover.

Never has dire treachery or deceit lurked so cunningly concealed behind the open face of innocence or beneath such breathtaking beauty.

Who better than Vincent Price to guide us through the strange ad weird experience into the unknown world of supernature?


No invention of man can compare with the natural ingenuity of these strange earthly inhabitants which only exist by the death traps they must set, by their victims which they must devour or absorb.

Not until a team of eminent Oxford Scientists investigating the biology of natural death traps had spent years perfecting special equipment, cameras, lenses and techniques, could they attempt to capture this strange alien world for the screen.

There are predators which seal themselves in tubes of silk and lie and wait; some whose heads form trap doors, while others offer part of their bodies as bait.
