Revenge Is The Best Medicine.
Meet Doctor Phibes: a one-time concert musician who's now an all-time crazed murderer. In this clever, crypt-kicking classic, horrormeister Vincent Price plays a diabolical doc seeking the ultimate in revenge with precision creepiness and surgical wit. Watch Dr. Phibes live up to his promise: "Nine killed her, nine shall die, nine eternities in doom!"
After a team of surgeons botch his beloved wife's surgery, leaving her for dead, the emotionally distraught Dr. Phibes creatively concocts a fatal prescription for revenge. Using the Good Book as his guide, Phibes unleashed a score of old testament atrocities -- from a plague of locusts to an attack of rats -- on his enemies that climax in what may be one of "the eeriest endings on screen record" (Syracuse Herald-Journal)!

Phun Phor all - 4.25 out of 5 (2/19/2001)
"Nine Killed Her, Nine will die!"
It's Phunny, It's Phreaky, and it's Phantasic! "The Abominable Dr. Phibes"
was Vincent Price's 100th movie and it's a phitting tribute that this philm
come out onto DVD along with its sequel.
This is the Philm (I'll stop that now!) that introduced us to one of the
last great horror icons. Price plays Dr. Anton Phibes, a mad genius who has
turned his talents towards getting revenge against those who did him wrong.
His mission is to dispatch nine docto

Wicked fun, Vincent Price style! - 3.75 out of 5 (3/15/2004)
There's a reason this movie is one of my favorites of all time. It's unusual, creepy, bizarre, funny, and entertainly captivating at the same time. Vincent Price plays the Abominable Dr. Phibes, a musician who was disfigured in a car crash while racing to see his wife, who had to undergo radical heart surgery. His wife died and the now insane Phibes takes his bizarre revenge on the physicians who failed to save his wife.
Just the right amount of truly biting black humor to offset the incredi
