Viewing Notes
It’s October so that means I’m watching a lot of horror this month. Today is no exception. Picked up Vincent Price in the The Tomb of Ligeia (1964) off MGMHD. Kinda really dig Price’s character here and his creepy sunglasses look. Directed by Roger Corman, the film isn’t all that hot (Price has it to resurrect his old flame by using a new girl) but still very watchable. Edgar Allan Poe’s short story is better but this is still good enough. I’ll watch Price in anything.
