Theatre of Blood (1973) - Red Triangle Reviews
16This week! I fake my death! (Again!) but this time it's as a means of taking out the competition! as I fiendishly pick off all the other critics who've snarked on me for the last 5 years! THIS IS FOR YOU CARL!!!11!!
*Ahem* that was just an example of my fine acting chops. of course. I only tend to do the works of the bard.im a traditionalist in the field ;) And as such you should definitley join me as we see out this seasons "Price is Fright" halloween specials with the 1973 STONE. COLD. CLASSIC. "Theatre of Blood" a film I genuinely consider to be one of the greatest horror movies ever made.

Synopsis:
Edward Kendal Sheridan Lionheart (Vincent Price) is a matinèe favorite Shakespearean actor of the old school, finding difficulty coping with new theater roles, who wreaks revenge on on the theater critics who give their annual Guild's "Best Actor" award to a new and upcoming actor rather than him. Incensed by their choice, he does this in the most ingenious and disturbing ways by imitating death scenes taken from his final repertoire of his beloved Bard's tales. Vincent Price is well supported by Dame Diana Rigg, as his dutiful daughter Edwina, and a bevy of the cream of British character actors, including; Ian Hendry, Sir Michael Hordern, Dennis Price, Robert Morley, and Arthur Lowe. —Brian Carruthers
