Theatre Of Blood - 1973 - 6/10
After critics, once again, savage hammy Shakespearean actor Edward Lionhart, the player commits suicide.
Not so fast! He is rescued in the Thames, and a few years later, incognito, he is back for revenge.
Directed at whom? The critics, of course!
Vincent Price has a field day in this especially bloody comedy.
There is an edge in this, as each victim receives an inventive Shakespeare themed demise.
Stellar cast includes Diana Rigg, Ian Hendry, Jack Hawkins, Michael Horden, Diana Dors, Robert Morley …
Filmed, I believe, in a vacant theatre.
Oh, for a behind the scenes documentary, and to hear cast members carry on.
