NEWS: PHIBES BLU RAYS GET REGION B RELEASE


NEWS: Both Special Edition Dr Phibes BLU RAYS get a REGION FOUR release on NOVEMBER 10th this year from #ArrowFilms...Both absolute Price classics with wonderful casting. For PC fans '...Rises Again' contains Peter Cushing's fleeting cameo performance as the ship's Captain, worth it alone,  just for the pay off of the following scene.


The Abominable Dr Phibes Rises Again
Release Date: 10th November 2014
Format: Blu-ray
Starring: Vincent Price, Robert Quarry, Peter Cushing, Fiona Lewis, Beryl Reid, John Thaw
Directed by: Robert Fuest
 
Synopsis:The abominable Dr. Phibes is back – and still looking to resurrect his beloved wife, Victoria. His quest takes him to Egypt in search of a Pharaoh’s tomb and the Rivers of Life that will bring her back to him. The Egyptian setting provides Dr. Phibes Rises Again with an air of adventure – the film paying affectionate if slightly camp homage to the cliffhanger serials of the 1930s and the ripping yarns of H. Rider Haggard. Boasting a starrier cast than the original film, Dr. Phibes Rises Again sees Vincent Price joined by an impressive roster of familiar faces, including fellow horror icon Peter Cushing (The Curse of Frankenstein, Dracula), Robert Quarry (Count Yorga, Vampire), Fiona Lewis (The Fury), Beryl Reid (Psychomania) and a young John Thaw.
