Product Description

Product Description

The abominable Dr. Phibes is back and still looking to resurrect his beloved wife, Victoria. His quest takes him to Egypt in search of a Pharaoh s tomb and the Rivers of Life that will bring her back to him.

The Egyptian setting provides Dr. Phibes Rises Again with an air of adventure the film paying affectionate if slightly camp homage to the cliffhanger serials of the 1930s and the ripping yarns of H. Rider Haggard.

Boasting a starrier cast than the original film, Dr. Phibes Rises Again sees Vincent Price joined by an impressive roster of familiar faces, including fellow horror icon Peter Cushing (The Curse of Frankenstein, Dracula), Robert Quarry (Count Yorga, Vampire), Fiona Lewis (The Fury), Beryl Reid (Psychomania) and a young John Thaw.

SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTS:

  • High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentation transferred from original film elements by MGM
  • Original uncompressed 2.0 Mono PCM Audio for both films
  • Optional English SDH subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing for both films
  • Audio commentary by critic and author Tim Lucas
  • Daughter of Phibes Victoria Price discusses Vincent Price s career
  • The Doctor Will See You Now an interview with Vincent Price s biographer, David Del Valle
  • Theatrical Trailer
  • Collector s booklet featuring an interview with Tim Burton conducted by Constantine Nasr, illustrated with original archive posters and stills
  • From Amazon.co.uk

    The title says it all--the abominable Dr Phibes Rises Again and he's as ruthless as ever. No longer content with merely avenging his wife's death, Phibes is now bent on her resurrection. With his mute assistant, Vulnavia, he sets off for Egypt, meting out bizarrely elaborate deaths--everything from clockwork snakes to a particularly severe exfoliation treatment--to all who stand in his way. This time Phibes has two competitors to race against: the trusty Inspector Trout and the renowned archaeologist Biederbeck, who has his own reasons for chasing Phibes. Like its predecessor, Dr Phibes Rises Again adds dark wit and imaginative art direction to the mix. Vincent Price is once again in high form, playing his organ with swooping arms and adding dry comic touches with a delicately cocked eyebrow. Watch out for cameos from a host of familiar faces, including Peter Cushing, Terry Thomas and Beryl Reid. --Ali Davis --This text refers to the DVD edition.

In 1971 the original `Abominable Dr Phibes' was released, and defined the genre of revenge psycho killer black comedy. It set the bar incredibly high for any following films, but the team responsible rose to the challenge and made this sequel in the following year. Unusually, the sequel is as good, or perhaps better than, the original.

After 3 years asleep, Phibes is awoken by his rather ingenious alarm clock. He sets about finding the secret of eternal life in Egypt (on behalf of his beloved wife), and merrily slaughtering anyone foolish enough to get in his way with a series of wonderfully inventive methods, involving clockwork snakes, grit blasting, scorpions, eagles, and my personal favourite, a distinctly un-orthopaedic bed.

Vying against Phibes is Beiderbeck, played by Robert Quarry, who also needs to find the secret river, for reasons of his own.

Vincent Price once again shines as Phibes, as evil genius psycho killers go, he's one of the best. Even though he's evil, he's so likeable that you really end up rooting for him at the end.

The film is once again a mix of grisly death and destruction, leavened with lashings of black humour (mainly provided by the two policemen on his trail and totally out of their depth), and a rip roaringly good 90 minutes entertainment.

This is decent budget DVD release. The film is presented in the original 1.85:1 widescreen, with a mono soundtrack. There has been no remastering, but the picture is nice and clean with a minimum of artefacts. Extras are limited to the original theatrical trailer, which is quite interesting.

Recommended to all fans of black comedy and evil genius revenge horror films.

Good hokey 1970s fun. The film picks up where the Abonimable Dr Phibes leaves off with Phibes attempting to revive his beloved using the secrets of ancient Egypt. The film features a distinguished cast including Robert Quarry, Peter Cushing, Terry Thomas, John Thaw and Peter Jeffrey amongst others. It also features the same level of ingenuity in dispatching them as its prequel. Not as original or as gruesomely funny as the original, but a good addition to any collection of a bigone era of Horror films.

As many other reviewers attest,this film is great fun. I think I even prefer it to the first. It's very anti-realist and stylised, paying homage to the Valentino cult (circa 'The Sheikh'?) and chock-full of the high-end 1920s and 30s trappings that enjoyed a second vogue in this period. Very good looking and quite dreamy, in its way. It's also highly comical, despite the gore. So it's a shame that there's been no restoration on the film and the transfer to DVD appears to have been done from my half-speed VHS tape made from a showing on ITV in 1999 - this pearl deserves better.

Better by far in fact. If you enjoyed The Abominable Dr. Phibes and are thinking of seeing this, then hesitate no more! The excellent Robert Fuest delivers the goods again with style and panache.

And if you liked the Phibes movies, track down Fuest's 'And Soon The Darkness' (scripted by Terry Nation and Brian Clemens in top form).

...and an absolute scream (sorry)...

Vincent Price is back with the sole aim of restoring his dead wife to life, ably assisted by silent (and rather sexy) assasin, Vulnavia...

The opening scene is magic, as Price is restored to life and camply sets about inspecting his (now demolished) house. From here we're whisked from London, to Egypt and beyond as the trail for the key to eternal life hots up between Phibes and his Rival explorer...

The death scenes and gags are good, if not quite up there with part 1 or the magnificent 'Theatre Of Blood' (Price's masterwork), but there's more than enough fun to be had with the clockwork snakes, squash boxes and scorpion chairs... ouch...

Shot on film in the early 70's, the film retains a suitably odd look thanks to the rapidly evolving technology, and cameos from heavyweights such as Terry Thomas and the magnificent Peter Cushing add gravitas...

A frightening treat...

This ARROW disc of the second PHIBES movie has good picture and sound and loads of extras.On a lot of these discs on the extra side we get one by VICTORIA PRICE who it seems is not that keen to praise her fathers movies which is a bit of a shame.Well back to the movie itself i loved the first movie but this one looked as though it was rushed out to cash in on the first one.The surprise of this movie is how good ROBERT QUARRY is yes he plays his role more or less as he did in the two COUNT YORGA movies but does it well. PETER CUSHING is also in this movie but he is in as a name only as he is on screen less than 3 min also in is TERRY THOMAS which is strange as he was in the first movie were he was killed of.As i have said before love the first movie not keen on this one would not have bought it for myself but a mate bought it for me and as a VINCENT PRICE movie i am happy to have it once again well done ARROW

Dr Anton Phibes(Vincent Price) awakens from his self imposed hibernation to discover the ancient Papyrus that will lead him to a sacred River of Life in Egypt has been stolen, and his house is in ruins. The papyrus is in the possession of archaeologist Darrus Biederbeck, whose outwardly ruthless exterior hides a terrible secret, a secret that drives Biederbeck towards the same destination as Phibes. Soon both parties arrive in Egypt, but Phibes will stop at nothing to achieve his goals, murdering anybody who gets in his way. Time is running out for both men...
This tremendous sequel to the stylish revenge comedy horror 'The Abominable Dr Phibes' differs in one respect. This time around, Dr Phibes doesn't have revenge on his mind, only the goal to bring his dead wife Victoria back from the dead. Fortunately for us, he still dispatches his perceived enemies with great style and the odd quip or two.
What this film shares with its predecessor is great wit, a wonderful visual style and classy Art Deco sets. The cast is even better this time around. Returning from the first film are Peter Jeffrey and John Cater, the lame arm of the law, Trout and Waverley of the Yard. Also returning, but in different roles are Terry-Thomas, who doesn't part with any of the red stuff this time around, playing sweaty shipping agent Lomardo. Hugh Griffith also returns, playing Biederbecke's unfortunate associate Harry Ambrose whose inquisitiveness leads him to be washed up on the shores of Blighty stuffed into a giant bottle of Gin. Other potential victims include Gerald Sim, Lewis Fiander, a young John Thaw and Fiona Lewis. Rounding off the cast are Peter Cushing and Beryl Reid in cameo roles.
