"Masque of Red Death" is definitely the best of the Corman/Price/Poe series. While many point out the well-budgeted, lavish set in comparison to the previous films, I believe this one is superior based on the story and solid characters alone.

It departs from the formula of the others in the series by being more tightly focused, more sinister, and the least camp of them all. It is refreshing to see Price maintain a sinister voice with his character that leaves little room for calling ... Read More:

DVD : The Comedy of Terrors/The Raven
I enjoyed Vincent Price's movies since I was a kid. My favorites are of course the Dr. Phibes flicks Vincent Price: MGM Scream Legends Collection (The Abominable Dr. Phibes / Tales of Terror / Theater of Blood / Madhouse / Witchfinder General / Dr. Phibes Rises Again / Twice Told Tales) and The Raven. Featuring the horror master's of their time - Price, Karloff, Lorre - and a new actor - Nicholson. It was 1963, and Roger Corman was working with Price on their string of popular adaptations of Poe's stories. ... Read More:

I'm one of the countless fans of this movie, very pleased it's on DVD at last... but is it? And if it is, then WHERE is it? How come it's unavailable within 48 hours of its release? What's going on? Can someone, anyone, explain?
UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!!!

Although "Curse Of Frankenstein" was technically not the first of Hammer's horror movies ("The Mystery Of The Marie Celeste", from 1935 {and starring Bela Lugosi}, gets that honor) it was their first in a couple decades and it was the one that really launched Hammer Horror as a force. It came out in 1957, at the beginning of a great burgeoning of horror, and it set the tone for a lot of Hammer's movies that would come and make the studio the UK's most signifigant horror player for years. So it has great historical ... Read More:

A lonely inn Scottish highland is visited by a meteor. Also the usual collection of personalities. After we get all the introductions and drinks on the house, an unexpected visitor appears from the sky.

Yep looks like a neighboring planet is deficient of a certain commodity. Yep it is Nyah (Patricia Laffan) an aloof min-skirted man less female alien. To satisfy the sci-fi in all of us the mention antimatter (in so many words) and the nest dimension. Does the space vehicle look like a prototype of the familiar Spielberg ... Read More:

This is a great set for roger corman era fans of drive in schlock. Bloody Mama(as seen on the cover)I had been hunting for since I first saw it in the early seventies, is a real treat. Gasss is also a pop-culture treasure of the era. These two films alone make it worth the purchase. But only if your a Roger Corman fan, those new to Cormans films I would reccommend Death Race 2000, Candy Stripe Nurses, or Eat my Dust,first.

These are among the worst movies I have ever stopped watching. Half way through the first movie I thought the garbage can would be a better storage spot than my shelf. Should come with a Yuk label! I only gave the collection one star because that is the lowest, most miserable rating that Amazon allows.

Don't know about the earlier Alpha release on both VHS and DVD of this film, but the audio track on the Cheezy Flicks release is for the birds -- muffled, out of sync. Otherwise, it's a good flick, with Hazel Court looking absolutely gorgeous in her prime. Call me a chauvinist, but she was (and I'm sure still is) a real beauty, and someone with great class and dignity.
