Even I am excited about this one, girls, as I have never seen it. I do have a question though--is the name pronounced "Feebs," or "Fi (Long "i")bes?" I go with the first, so when we watch the film, we can find out the correct answer.
But this film does have some exciting potential. It sounds like a redo of Georges Franju's 1960 masterpiece, "Eyes Without A Face," and a foreshadowing of the cumulative film of Vincent Price's career, made just two years after 'Phibes--' "Theater Of Blood," in 1973.
Price plays a musician enroute to the hospital where his wife is dying, but they are trying to save her. He gets in a car accident, is horribly disfigured. The wife dies, and Price, now disfigured, concocts a murderous plan of revenge on the doctors who treated his wife, based on the Biblical plagues.
Hons, as you know, I am not Bernadette; hell, I am not even Jennifer Jones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot remember what all the Biblical plagues were, so this should be a learning experience. So, this should be a lot of fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And, of course, we are all looking forward to seeing what film Sventoonie deconstructs, on his show. Especially little Pippin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, join us tomorrow at 8PM, with this Vincent Price Celebration!!!!!!!!!!
See you then, girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh I know ALL that Bible stuff lol
