“A man who limits his interests limits his life.” If anything Vincent Price ever uttered were to sum up his general philosophy towards life, it’s those words. A classically trained, consummate character actor with a career spanning seven decades on stage, screen, television and radio, Vincent Price is perhaps best remembered as one of the world’s most beloved horror icons. Beyond his thespian exploits, he was one of America’s most impassioned ambassadors, collectors and curators of the visual arts and for a time was the most in-demand lecturer on the subject in the country. He was a self-styled gourmet chef who wrote a number of celebrated cookbooks although few things pleased him more than viagra fedex the simple pleasure of eating a hot dog at a ball game. Above all, he consumed every last morsel of his life with an insatiable desire and made the absolute most of every opportunity his privileged upbringing afforded him.

Cinephobia Radio’s Stuart Feedback Andrews will take us on a two-day journey through the history of Vincent Price’s life and career. Armed with an arsenal of film clips, slides, interviews and a couple of surprise guests, we’ll examine Vincent’s evolution as a horror legend beginning with his role as the Duke of Clarence opposite Boris Karloff in Tower of London (1939), his turn as the obsessive Professor Jarrod in House of Wax (1953), his work on such William Castle classics as House on Haunted Hill (1959) and The Tingler (1959), the tormented characters he played in Roger Corman’s Edgar Allan Poe adaptations, the exuberant cycle of films he did in the 70’s with a stellar British supporting cast and finally, his heart-warming renaissance before the lens of his adoring fan and protégé Tim Burton in what was destined to become his last on-screen appearance, Edward Scissorhands in 1990. Vincent Price was a unique product of his time, culture and social class and over the course of the two days, we’ll trace how his varied interests, pursuits, political and spiritual beliefs evolved concurrently and often collided with his iconic body of work.
