Subject: Favorite horror films with Vincent Price

Without a doubt, one of the greatest icons in horror films. Growing up with him on TV would not have been the same, had he not been on the screen.

He did so many great ones, but here are a few that come to mind.

House of Wax (1953)
The Fly (1958)
House on Haunted Hill (1959)
House of Usher (1960)
The Pit and the Pendulum (1961)
Tales of Terror (1962)
The Abominable Dr Phibes (1971)

I love all the films listed about, but some of my other favorites would have to be "The Bat" and "The Last Man On Earth".

The two films cited by Frankie are probably among Vincent Price's lesser known works, but both are well worth viewing!

The Bat (1959) is a good old-fashioned horror/mystery film with Price and Agnes Moorehead.

The Last Man on Earth (1964) is the first movie adaptation of Richard Matheson's famous I Am Legend (1954) novel, which was later filmed as The Omega Man (1971) with Charlton Heston, and more recently as I Am Legend (2007) with Will Smith.

The Last Man on Earth is pretty easy to find on DVD, as it went into public domain some years back. It's sometimes seen on "double feature" DVD's with House on Haunted Hill (1959).

Lesser known is right!
From what I understand, they were very low budget.
Often times it shows, but I love them none the less.
Call me what you will, but I like them all the more for being a little obscure. :-)
