This video is really great. Seriously, I am a picky motherfucker. This is great.

@wizenhiemr Thank you very much.

Very well done! Vincent was a dear friend, always supportive of my museum. My favorite of his characters was "Dr. Phibes", which I sculpted a life size figure, complete with his "voice revitalizer" gizmo, he loved it! He always appreciated his fans, even when one lady thought he was Boris Karloff, he tried to correct her, but ended up signing an autograph to her as Boris Karloff! As he said to me, "Am sure Boris would love this!" The "Phibes" films were unique, this was a fine tribute BRAVO!

@DUNGEONGHOULS13 Thank you very much! I wish I could have met Vincent he is and always will be of my favourite actors.

By the way your Dr Phibes figure sounds great!

God Bless Vincent Price

[cozmovaldimar]

Agreed.

REBOOT PHIBES NOW!!!!!!!

[garganrose]

Vincent Priceless is more appropriate

[DUNGEONGHOULS13]

Yes, my life size figures of Vincent as both "Dr. Phibes" with his "Voice Revitalizer" gizmo, and as "Professor Henry Jarrod", from "House Of Wax" were on display at a museum, in his hometown of St. Louis, during the "Vincentennial". I felt very honored they requested my figures, since Vincent was such a dear friend. I also provided an original hand painted cel of "Ratigan", from "The Great Mouse Detective", which Vincent signed to me - "With every good wish, and several evil ones too!"

@DUNGEONGHOULS13 did that sculpture happen to be at the st louis vincentennial?

[Baconmaninspace]

Words fail me.

@DUNGEONGHOULS13 It is an honor to meet someone who knew him. He´s movies are a substantive part of my childhood.

[iheartslashers]

Now...that's true love...sorry if people think it's sick...but that is true love....

[jaytlr9]

@Bobzeaux I was thinking along those same lines, Bobzeaux. I would not have chosen this song if I'd been asked to --lol--but hearing it now, it seems to fit. I think it was used for the end of both Phibes films.

[Phantanos]

Forget Saw's Jigsaw killer. Phibes is the master.

[joealanouf]

you realize what you have done..... i HAVE to see these films.

braw frikkin O'yah!

[MarcusBritish]

I find the two Dr Phibes films amazing - underneath the murder and chilling deaths lies a true love story - a man who will kill for a dead woman whom he still loves. That moment, as he sails into the River of Life, singing this song, always makes me want to shed a tear for his winning moment - you don't expect to side with the "bad guy", but in this case, it can't be helped - it's cheesy, yet somehow very touching. The innocence of an age gone by shows in these films so well.

Hello Dr. Theda here... I was feeling a bit down today... Thanks again for the Video... I am still glad that I was able to obtain the Dr. Phibes action figures for my "Cabinet of Villains"...

[Soyurbana]

Si existe el cielo Vincent esta allá asustando a los angeles. Lo amo con todo mi corazón.

[twinsiggy]

TE AMO VINCENT.....IDOLO!!!!!.....

[ELPerroBuddy63]

MY ONLY CONCERN IS THAT SOME VERY IGNORANT AMERICAN OUT THERE WOULD EVEN CONSIDER DOING A DR.PHIBES REMAKE IN THE NEAR FUTURE.VINCENT PRICE WAS NOT ONLY AN OUTSTANDING ACTOR BUT HE WAS A GENIUS AND KNEW HOW TO UTILIZE HIS TALENTS

[DrTheda735]

@DUNGEONGHOULS13 That sounds wonderful... Do you have a YouTube Video of your creation ? I was able to obtain the 1/6th scale figures of Dr. Phibes several weeks ago I have been a big fan of the Doctor since I was a Small child Best wishes Dr. Theda

[Zoras88]

this is the second guy i know to turn a happy tune into something creepy.

I LOVE IT!!!!

[heathenwolf1]

Vincent Price was a genius when it came to acting and i love all his movies. I only regret i never got to meet him in person. I wish i had a complete collection of all his movies. There will never be a actor that portrays such fine terrors as Vincent Price. May he Rest in Peace and know his fans still love him.

[DrTheda735]

This was one of Mr. Price's most memorable performances.. I truly enjoyed this movie as a small child.... This tribute is a wonderfully edited piece, with Vincent Price singing the song from Wizard of Oz.... Thanks again for Lifting my spirits when I am Down Dr, Theda

[Billabobdooda2]
