Vincent Price and Boris Karloff played two of their most bizarre yet most hilarious roles in this one! For those into either of those actors, this is a must see!

This is a good one. Others with both Vincent Price and Peter Lorre, who make a great team IMO, are Tales of Terror from 1962 and of course, The Raven from 1963.
I like that when these two were together there was always some comedy aspects to the movies. It was always nice to see Price in campy roles sometimes and it also fit Lorre surprisingly well.

I have seen The Raven and got a good kick out of that one. I have not seen Tales Of Terror, but will look that one up to see if it's on Tubi or Crackle, or maybe rent it for a couple of bucks on Prime if I can't find it anywhere else. I do love those classic horror anthology films from Amicus, along with others like the Creepshows, Dr. Terror's Gallery Of Horrors, Dead Time Stories, and the like.
