This an odd, artsy Horror/Comedy but it is really interesting. The "kills" by Dr. Phibes are ingenious even if I'm not exactly sure how he manages to execute them undetected. The police force, led by Inspector Trout, offer some great comedic relief and it's needed. Vincent Price's Dr. Phibes is an emotionless zombie for the majority of the film. This is really a unique Horror movie and will be very popular with any classic Hammer or William Castle fans.

This was an odd one. The mix of camp, word play and blood was a fun mix.

This film is just so much fun right? We have Vincent Price avenging his wife by killing the doctors who couldn't save her. And he does with with loads of creativity, basing his kills on Egypt Curses. I loved that he couldn't speak because of the accident he had while trying to get in time to his wife and Vincent Price sells that very well! I also really love those colorful 70's horror films. I only missed the Hammer red blood. The opening though, with the concert, you're like wtf? And they suck you right in! We also have a fun detective played by Peter Jeffrey. Who is always one step behind the great Vincent Price! Anyway, this is a must watch for anyone. It great fun and has a great ending. You won't regret these 90 minutes!

Dr. Phibes had supposedly died many years prior, but in the mid-1920's why he the only suspect is a serious of very strange deaths. Dr. Phibes, if he's still alive is gaining revenge on the doctors who let his darling wife die. But Dr. Phibes is killing in a meaningful way, by using the 10 curses visited upon the Pharaoh in the Bible: from frogs to locusts to rats to death of the first born son. Inspector Trout and Sergeant Schenley are on the case but seem to be too late in every case to stop the deaths from happening. Extravagant sets and ingenious deaths, Dr. Phibes is the precursor to films like Seven, where serial killers use religion as their trademark kill. The film is serious but also filled with a wry wit which makes it much more intriguing to watch than had it tried to go be a straight horror film.

That was surprisingly really fun. Was kinda sceptical what I was getting into as I was watching a man playing an organ for the first 5 minutes, but then the film actually started and it was fun. Loved the creative kills, the story was compelling and the dialogues were very amusing.
