Synopsis:

9 CLASSIC HORROR FEATURES FROM THE 'MASTER OF MENACE'. Contained herein is a collection of works from Vincent Price, affectionately known as the 'Master of Menace'. Price first broke into horror films in the 1950's where he remained an important player in the genre all the way through to the late 80's. Vincent Price unfortunately passed away in 1993 but his legendary character portrayals, especially in the horror field, will live on for many years to come. Sit back, turn out the lights and enjoy this wonderful collection of carnage from a true master of the horror genre.

The Abominable Dr Phibes: One by one, Vincent Price kills off a team of doctors who failed to save his wife on the operating table. Due to injury in an auto accident, Phibes has no face or voice. He devises gruesome ends for the doctors, each death patterned after one of the plagues brought down on Ramses in ancient Egypt -- from bats to locusts.

Dr Phibes Rises Again: This sequel to the stylish 1971 melodrama The Abominable Dr. Phibes once more stars Vincent Price in the title role. Long believed dead, Phibes arises from a state of suspended animation, in search of the means to bring his deceased wife back to the land of the living. With the aid of the enigmatic, never-speaking Vulnavia (Valli Kemp), Phibes follows an Egyptian expedition, seeking out an ancient elixir of life and killing everyone who gets in his way.

Witchfinder General: By consensus, Vincent Price's finest performance among his gallery of horror-movie rogues comes in Witchfinder General, the intense 1968 film that erased any hint of camp from the actor's persona. Price plays Matthew Hopkins, a sadistic 17th-century 'witchfinder' who uses barbaric methods to identify (and invariably execute) supposed witches...

Tomb Of Ligeia: Some years after having buried his beloved wife Ligea, Verden Fell meets and eventually marries the lovely Lady Rowena. Fell is something of a recluse, living in a small part of a now ruined Abbey with his manservant Kenrick as the only other occupant. He remains infatuated with his late wife and is convinced that she will return to him...

The Haunted Palace: In this chilling adaption of H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Case Of Charles Dexter Ward', Charles Dexter Ward (Vincent Price) travels with his wife Ann (Debra Paget) to Arkham to inspect a mansion he has inherited...

House Of Usher: When a beautiful young woman's suitor arrives to ask her hand in marriage, the doors of the mysterious house of Usher fling open...and terror begins. It seems the young woman's brother is violently opposed to her planned marriage and resorts to macabre ends to prevent the tainted Usher blood from spreading to future generations.

House On Haunted Hill: The sinister Price invites his enemies to spend the night in his decaying, old, creepy mansion with a violent past. He offers them $10,000 each if they can spend the whole night there. He gives each one a tiny coffin with a gun enclosed and then comes up with all sorts of devices to cause them to use the guns on each other.

The Masque Of The Red Death: The Masque of the Red Death is Roger Corman's, and most people's, choice as the best of the Edgar Allan Poe pictures. Masque offers the expected creepy atmosphere and violence against peasants, plus metaphysical ponderings and pointed satanic cruelty...

The Last Man On Earth: Screen legend Vincent Price stars in this, the first, and finest, adaptation of Richard Matheson's classic horror/sci-fi novel I Am Legend. After a plague wipes out the human race, Dr. Robert Morgan (Price) struggles with loneliness - and his sanity as the monotony of the unending days broken only by his daily hunts for vampires!..
