I can't remember his name at the moment, but who is stuck with a spear and dragged off by a horse? I think that one is my favourite of Lionheart's revenge killings.

That'd be Dennis Price!

That's the man! It's been ages since I saw Theatre of Blood, and that was when I was working my way through the R1 MGM Vincent Price collection!

I would have to say La Noche del Terror Ciego / Tombs of the Blind Dead,even if it's way too slow by today's standards.First saw it on Redemption's uncut big box VHS release (it even had some cards in it).The Templars still put the chill to the bone in every scene they're in.

As for his non-horror roles: please do me the favour and watch Kind Hearts and Coronets (if you haven't done that yet) - if ever a movie has to be called fantastic, that's the one. As for my 1971 favourite horror movie: I would chose Bay of Blood by Bava - my all-time favourite that I would crown for its cleverness of the story, the camera work, the music, the beautful Claudine Auger and, of course, the thirteen murders being rich in variety. Additionally: one of the grimmest yet best endings ever. Greetings! |

1971 Fav's
Just joined the site yesterday and am enjoying it quite a bit. Chalk me up as another vote against "Dr. Phibes" as the best. Don't get me wrong, I love Vincent Price (he is my favorite actor) but I would put "Phibes" as fourth on the list for that year. "Blood On Satan's Claw" has to be #1 for its uniformly excellent acting and great production. It is one of those films that I like more and more as the years go by and I wish people still made those kinds of period films. "Tombs of the Blind Dead" would be my #2 for its creation of one of the most genuinely creepy and iconic monsters, The Templars, of the 70's (or any other decade for that matter). While the story and the acting are uneven the image of The Templars on their horses always gives me a chill. De Ossorio has some pigs in his catalog but he will always get props from me for this series. "Bay of Blood" would be my #3 just for its influence on the films it spawned like "Friday the 13th". Those films, of course, didn't have the advantage of a maestro like Bava but they kept us entertained over the years. |
