Not only do you get the mighty Vincent Price in the lead role, but you also get able support from the great Peter Cushing. It might not be either of the pair’s finest hour, but this is still an enjoyable horror romp which has plenty to offer.

We feel for this terrorized former star, yet the Dr. Death persona is no less sinister in quality as dual imagery and creepy soliloquies invoke a haunting portrayal.

It's a seemingly foolproof premise that's employed to predominantly lackluster and uninvolving effect by Clark...

Has the unmistakable feel of a valediction, not just for Price's career as a horror movie leading man, but for an entire ethos of horror movie-making.
