Heard an abominable rumor on the House Of Phibes email list that someone wants to remake the Dr. Phibes film. They'll mash the two films into one and in their words "tell the whole story" which really isn't true since there was to have been a third film or maybe more. Take to classic films and make them into one most likely cheaply made film and you just know they'll add cheap ass cgi and make it in 3D. What could be worse?...yeah i know hiring Rob Zombie to direct.
I cringe at the idea of who they would cast as Phibes.
Amen,there's no one,except perhaps Robert Englund,who could match Vincent Price's performance as The Abominable Dr. Phibes. Also,I'm sick & F'N tired of all the remakes,re-imaginings & reboots of classic horror films. THEY AIN'T BROKE SO TRY TO FIX 'EM.
