One of my sci-fi/horror/fantasy reviews written 50 years ago: Directed by Jacques Tourneur; Produced by Sam Arkoff and James Nicholson for American-International Pictures. Screenplay by Richard Matheson; Photographed by Floyd Crosby; Edited by Anthony Carras; Music by Les Baxter; Production Design by Daniel Haller. Starring: Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, Joyce Jameson, Boris Karloff, Basil Rathbone, Beverly Hills, Joe E. Brown, Alan DeWitt, Linda Rogers and Buddy Mason.
Valuable one-of-a-kind spoof of horror films which rounds up several of the old veterans, who ham it up outrageously. Silly, but it saves a lot of time for non-genre folks who don't want to sit through innumerable campy originals to groove on cliches and macabre humor, as Price & Lorre play luckless morticians who kill rich folks to drum up business.
