I know there are many fans of Dr. Phibes out there, and I thought this "what if?" poster might interest more than a few. Offered by Strange Kids Club is "The Bride of Dr. Phibes" movie poster. Ordering details and a synopsis of the never-made third film are at their site. Just click on the image!

That's so much fun to look at! I really want to be transported into that poster!

What a cool concept!

Back when I used to sketch a lot, I'd do things like this. Concept art for films that never got made, or were off in the future, still. I remember doing a whole series of Sith Lord sketches before "The Empire Strikes Back" came out. They all wore uniforms similar to Darth Vader's, with the bell-shaped helmets. Some were human, some were aliens. I even did sketches for a Universal Pictures remake of "Frankenstein," starring Frank Langella as Henry Frankenstein and David Prowse as The Monster. Never did any paintings, though.

Great piece! Love the style and colors! I just ordered one for my studio! Thanks for the heads up on this one!

I wish they also offered a version with titles and credits, but it's still a very cool piece.

Back in the 80s, Laurel Entertainment owned a property entitled Phibes Ressurected. I don't know if it ever made it to the script stage but that's also a nice "what if" kinda thing.

Here's a pretty good overview of the various unmade Dr. Phibes sequels and reboots.

I need a time machine to go back and get Vincent Price so we can make these sequels.

It's that David Carradine was considered to replace Price in "Phibes Resurrectus." If I were going to remake "Phibes" today, I'd want Liam Neeson as Phibes and Liz Hurley as Victoria.

Vincent Price was one of the original "perverted avengers" and I never tires of watching the Dr. Phibes films.
