"Choices, choices. Download the three-part web series Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog over the next few days, or wait for the DVD release? Maybe both. Dr. Horrible is Joss “man with the Midas touch” Whedon’s experimental comedy/sci-fi musical. If the trailer above doesn’t lie, the whole shoestring production will shine like B-grade gold. The story: Neil Patrick Harris (Doogie Howser, MD) is Dr. Horrible, too shy to talk to his crush (Felicia Day from The Guild) and struggling to prove himself to the Evil Group of Evil. The doctor’s arch-enemy Captain Hammer is played by Nathan Fillion (Firefly, Slither), the coolest poor man’s action star around. Dr. Horrible is like an awkward, flamboyant grandson of Vincent Pric "

"In turns creepy and humorous, this is another Vincent Price winner. Basically, just a series of murders based on the biblical G'tach, this film obviously was the inspiration for later films like Seven and Saw. The art deco in this film is fantastic ala Stanley Kubrick which, in my opinion, gives it it's eerie vibe. Kind of hard to find, but well worth a watch. "

Nine eternities in DOOM!" - Dr. Anton Phibes (Vincent Price)Poor Dr. Phibes... his wife dies tragically on the operating table after only six minutes in surgery. He gets in a tragic car accident, burnt and disfigured and thought to be dead. And the thought that the chief surgeon, the surgery nurse and seven consulting doctors who presided over his wife's death are still alive fills him with the purest sense of revenge. To gain this revenge, he will reconstruct (with slight variations) the Biblical plagues of Egypt, doing in each of the guilty with a different plague (boils, blood, rats, etc.)It seems simple enough, but this film takes a basic potboiler premise and takes it to an amazing level of sublime and artful horror. Phibes isn't just mad with lust for revenge; he is a genius of high order: a doctor, an inventor, a scientist, a concert musician... Phibes manages to weave all ... "
