Vincent Price : The Price of Fearrr

The Price of Fearrr

Vincent was absolutely brilliant in the radio show, The Price of Fear. It was like actually being there. Anybody else like this show?

Re: The Price of Fearrr

I do enjoy that show quite a bit. Vincent Price personalized every episode by having them all involve himself directly in some way, and I thought that was a rather novel approach. It's a very original concept to have a celebrity as themselves participating in a story, as opposed to having him play a different character every episode or just provide openings and closings.

Not every episode is a gem, but the ones I've liked I've liked quite a bit. The last episode, entitled "The Man Who Hated Scenes", actually co-stars Peter Cushing, and the two actors get to have extensive back-and-forth dialogue, something even their films together never allowed.

Thanks Fritz for reply. Found your thoughts most interesting and agree about TMWHS. I thought Waxwork was most creepy, it had me hooked.

Re: The Price of Fearrr

The Price of Fear is one of my personal favorites by him. I've listened to the collection more times than I can count. If you enjoy that, then you'd most likely be a big fan of "Tales of the Frightened" which was narrated by Boris Karloff in 1963. If you're not familiar with it already, I highly recommend it.
