House on Haunted Hill (1959) Vincent Price | Horror, Mystery Cult Film 

I agree with you 100%. He did a great job as the evil Professor Ratigan.

Indeed.

Nothing comes close to your close minded notion of greatness. Let's see: Robert Redford, Clint Eastwood, Robert Dinero, Meryl Streep, Al Pacino, Mike Douglass.....

@@MyOneFiftiethOfADollar surely you jest.

Very funny !!! So true!!

good scripts, good, suspense no need for gore and profanity

​@@tommymarco I used to scar my brain with extreme horror movies like _'A Serbian Film'_ and _'Human Centipede'_ and _'Martyrs'_ and _'Cannibal Holocaust'_ and _'Salo: 120 Days of Sodom'_ etc. Now I prefer classic 50/60s gothic movies with actors like Christopher Lee, Peter Cushing, Vincent Price or Boris Karloff. I'm less unhappy as a result.

Love him or loathe him, he's as camp as a row of tents. Definitely not a criticism. In fact, I doubt that VP would get a look in these days. It took real acting chops, whether camp or otherwise, to be able to convey what many of these actors do in such movies. Bearing in mind the material they're working with.

He was Tim Burton's idol

hey a cool pun too.

Ws Von Dexter behind the music with the lady and the operatic voice? It was wonderful throughout! First time I've seen this film.

@@theoriginalbluey I'm not sure who the woman was or if Mr. Dexter chose this vocalist personally. Sorry. She really gives the soundtrack an ethereal quality.

@@theoriginalbluey Someone once said that it could have been Loulie Jean Norman. You can look her up; she is well known for her theremin-like work on the season 1 theme of Start Trek, from 1966. Here is an upload of most of this film's music, plus sound effects and such: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yuKhFkG832U.html Seems that this audio above had to be extracted directly from the movie itself because it seems the actual score is not available anywhere.

He was Tim Burton's idol

So true! He does get killed a lot in his movies! What a great actor! That’s what elevated this movie. Price and Cook and Long and Castle directing!

He didnt die at the end of the Maltese Falcon. -- but yes I know what you mean.

redshiftexperiment maybe I am confused, I thought it was agreed between Spade and Gutmann that Wilmer would be the « fall guy ». Did that just mean prison?

@@benoitpellet1657 yes it was agreed that Wilmer would be the fall guy. This meant that Spade needed someone that the police could pin all the murders on. Spade mentioned to Gutman that if he didnt have someone to give to the cops then he would be in danger of being arrested for Thursby's murder and possibly the others. So yeah it was all about handing someone over to the cops. That being said, it didnt matter anyway because Wilmer ran off before the end of the movie. So we dont really know what ended up happening to him at all. (Although based on a phone conversation Spade had with the cops near the very end, it could be assumed that he was caught, but it's not definite.) I dont know if the Wilmer character was killed or even existed in the Dashiell Hammett novel, but that's how it played out in the movie anyway. Sorry for the long response.. LOL .. that's one of my favorite movies. :)

redshiftexperiment Great, thanks for the explanation!

As for us... (who love Edgar Allan Poe).

It's not a politically incorrect movie, so maybe they sometimes close the eyes and let it pass.

If you want a real answer and not some dumb nonsense like the commenter above me spouted, it's because this film is in the public domain.

The gates close at midnight, not at 23:00 or before or imeddiately after the guests' arrival. The host said it himself. Before midnight anybody may leave, but he / she loses the money.

It’s called fun, pal.
