"The War March of the Priests" is perfect for Dr. Phibes because he sees himself as a righteous avenger, he feels completely justified in what he does.

There are in fact two versions of the film. One with this magnificient piece of music at the beginning and one which starts with a modified version of the song the automaton orchestra plays (a little later in the film)

@davros1221 This is a prime example of a masterful, near-perfect musical work enhanced by marvellous visuals. For a better musical rendering, view Roucher du Toit's rendition on a really massive pipe organ in South Africa.

I like this but the organ in The Ghost and Mr. Chicken is way spooky!
Thanks so much for posting; I LOVE this song and both of the Phibes movies. I've told my husband I want this song played at my funeral, complete with black plumed horses pulling a black funeral coach. Total class!
