Directed by Douglas Hickox, 1973 This deliciously dark, comedy horror stars Vincent Price as the hammy, self-important and thoroughly psychotic Edward Lionheart, a veteran actor who refuses to play anything other than Shakespeare. Piqued by a circle of critics who he feels denied him his rightful Best Actor of the Year Award, he decides to murder them one by one in the manner of famous death scenes from Shakespeare’s plays. Featuring Price at his melodramatic best, Diana Rigg as his faithful daughter, a string of gruesome and comically bizarre murders and an inspired ensemble cast including Robert Morley, Diana Dors, Eric Sykes, Jack Hawkins, Milo O’Shea and Ian Hendry. Bring a touch of gothic panache to your Halloween with this classic British Horror.
