Synopsis
Dr. Phibes Rises Again (1972) is a British horror-comedy you can watch online on iFILM, with Robert Fuest bringing Vincent Price back as the disfigured genius of revenge.
Three years after his apparent death, Phibes stirs back to life when the moon and Saturn line up just so. His goal hasn't changed: resurrect his late wife Victoria. That means traveling to Egypt for an ancient scroll marking the source of an eternal-life elixir, and removing anyone in his path through gloriously baroque killings. A rival named Darius Biederbeck, played by Robert Quarry, is chasing the same secret. Peter Cushing turns up in a small part.
Fuest stages death like an Art Deco showpiece — every murder elaborately designed, while Price performs almost wordlessly through a throat device. It's built for fans of vintage gothic where dread and wit hold hands. Stream Dr. Phibes Rises Again online on iFILM.
