THE ORIGINAL MASTER OF HORROR, THREE VINCENT PRICE CREEPY CLASSICS AVAILABLE ON DVD FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER RESTORED AND REMASTERED CENTURY CITY, Calif. – With a career spanning more than 50 years with over 120 film credits to his name, the distinguished Vincent Price is known as the original master of horror. As a writer and actor, Price is known for his distinctive, low-pitched, creaky voice and his quizzical, mock-serious facial expressions seen in horror favorites such as House of Wax, The Fly and House On Haunted Hill. Before his extensive film career, his renowned voice chilled audiences over radio airwaves. Now making their DVD debuts on October 9 from Fox Home Entertainment come three creepy classics Hangover Square, The Lodger and The Undying Monster, originally mesmerizing radio listeners by Price before director John Brahm brought them to the silver screen. Each of these horror classics features the vintage radio show with Vincent Price narrating the tale, as well as commentaries, restoration comparisons and more. Based on the novel by Patrick Hamilton, Hangover Square (1945) stars Laird Cregar (Heaven Can Wait, Charley’s Aunt) as a composer who suffers from unexplainable blackouts. When he discovers the young attractive woman he has fallen for wants to steal his music, his blackouts may result in murder. Cregar also stars in The Lodger (1942), a tale of a family suffering from financial hardship that offers a room in their home to a mysterious wanderer to help make end’s meet. But when suspicious habits come to fruition, they begin to fear this peculiar stranger may in fact be the infamous serial killer Jack the Ripper. In The Undying Monster (1942) an inspector investigates the murderous connection of a werewolf’s relentless pursuit of a certain family. The DVDs will be available for the suggested retail price of $26.98 / $46.98 Canada. Prebook is September 12, 2007.
