Because it's almost Halloween, I want to take a moment to appreciate this guy.
Classic horror movies had almost nothing in the way of special effects. I for one love the hokey skeletons on fishing line and melodramatic swoons. The string music and grave expressions. But I love the atmosphere too. The shadows and cigarettes and the magic of imagination.
And no one has a better voice for atmosphere than Vincent Price. His orgininal House on Haunted Hill is my cheesy Halloween favorite.
