Scream Factory will unleash The Vincent Price Collection III in 2016!

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Those magnificent bastards over at Scream Factory just keep on surprising, don’t they? The distributor has brought a smile to my face more time than I can count, and they just did it again. I’m the goddamn cheshire cat over here!

The Factory announced they’ll be concluding a trilogy of Vincent Price goodness with The Vincent Price Collection III. As owner of the first two collections, I can attest to the love and care they put into these box sets, so the third should be money.

What will be on it, you wonder. The terrifying titles are: 

MASTER OF THE WORLD (1961): In 1848, a fanatical inventor seeks to fly around the world and stop war from his flying airship (the “Albatross”)…a cross between a zeppelin and a helicopter.

TOWER OF LONDON (1962): The twisted Richard III is haunted by the ghosts of those he has murdered in his attempt to become the King of England.

DIARY OF A MADMAN (1963): Vincent Price turns in a classic performance as a sculptor, possessed by an evil spirit, who hires a model (Nancy Kovack) to pose for him — then learns thereafter that she has been brutally murdered.

CRY OF THE BANSHEE (1970): In Elizabethan England, a wicked lord massacres nearly all the members of a coven of witches, earning the enmity of their leader, Oona. Oona calls up a magical servant, a “banshee”, to destroy the lord’s family.

AN EVENING WITH EDGAR ALLAN POE (1970): Vincent Price recites four Edgar Allen Poe stories: The Tell-Tale Heart, The Sphinx, The Cask of Amontillado, and The Pit and the Pendulum.

Naturally, these aren’t necessarily top-tier Price films; those have already been covered by Scream Factory. (Order Collection I HERE and Collection II HERE.) Still, I haven’t seen most of these titles, so to witness them on Blu-ray should indeed be something close to a revelation.

More details as they come in…
