Something Wildly WILD WILD WILD Has Happened, My Peeps…

…As…

…Something I’ve “OFFICIALLY” Stated…

…Many Many MANY Times…

…Has “OFFICIALLY” CHANGED In My World!

SOME Folks HATE HATE HATE That.

I…

…Am On The Ole “Flip-Side” Of THAT “Proverbial Coin“!!!

If You’ll Allow Me To Jive With Ya A Moment…

…Here’s What Up:

For An ULTRA-LOOOOOOONG-TIME…

…I’ve Told (nearly) EVERYONE…

…”WITCHFINDER GENERAL“…

...Is…

…BY FAR…

…MY…

…”FAVE of FAVES“…

…In Regard To…

…VINCENT PRICE Films.

Period.

TODAY…

…However…

…I’m “OFFICIALLY“…

…Going “ON-THE-RECORD“…

…With Y’ALL…

…And Saying…

…”WITCHFINDER GENERAL“…

…IS…

…An AMAZING…

…”Horror/Thriller Film“…

…And…

…Honestly…

…That Can NEVER Be Denied.

Well…

…At Least…

…Not In MY Mind.

BUT BUT BUT, Dear Friends…

…I’ve “OFFICIALLY” Found…

…A NEW…

 …”FAVE of FAVES“!!!

I’ve Seen EACH and EVERY (available) Horror/Thriller…

…Within Dear VINCENT’s “Film Acting Catalog” I’ve Found…

..Thus Far.

😉

Some Are Silly.

Some Are MORE Silly.

Some Are Brutal.

Some Are MORE Brutal.

Some Are Brilliant.

Some Are MORE Brilliant.

And…

…I Have Now Made My Decision, Kiddies.

“WITCHFINDER GENERAL“

???

Brutal AND Brilliant.

“DIARY

OF A

MADMAN”

??? ???

Not So Brutal…

…But…

…BRILLIANT…

…BRILLIANT…

…BRILLIANT!!!

"DIARY OF A MADMAN" (1963)

I’d Only Seen This Film ONCE.

I Was About…

…oh…

…12’ish.

I’m NOW About…

…oh…

…30’ish’ish.

My Mind Is MORE Aged.

My Perception Is MORE Acute.

My Passion For “The Things I Find AMAZING“…

…Has Grown By “LEAPS and BOUNDS“…

…And In Ways I TOTALLY Find…

…MUCH MORE AMAZING.

PERIOD.

VINCENT PRICE…

…Totally Totally TOTALLY…

…Found His…

…”Performance Balance“…

…In…

“DIARY

OF A

MADMAN”

VINCENT PRICE is "Magistrate Simon Cordier" in "DIARY OF A MADMAN"

I Have NEVER…

…NEVER NEVER EVER NEVER NEVER…

…Seen Such An “AMAZING Combo“…

…Of…

…Calm…

…Cool…

…And…

…Calculating…

…Mixed…

…To…

…PERFECTION…

…With…

…STARK…

…RAVING…

…CRAZY…

…BRILLIANT…

…MADNESS!!!

VINCENT PRICE is TOTALLY In-Control, Here!

I’m A HUGE Fan…

…Of Often “OVER-ACTORS“…

…Who Show You Something “DIFFERENT“.

Something You’ve NEVER Seen From Them Before.

“WITCHFINDER GENERAL“

In All Honesty…

…DID Give US That.

VINCENT PRICE…

…Had NEVER Shown Such…

…hmm…

…”Restraint“???

And THAT…

…In VERY MUCH All Honesty…

…Is What SOLD…

…That Film…

…And…

…That Performance.

The Often “OVER-ACTING“…

…VINCENT PRICE…

…Held Back.

He Wanted To Make…

…”Mr. Matthew Hopkins“…

…A TRULY…

…”Frightening Character“…

…And I’ve ALWAYS Felt He DID DO EXACTLY THAT.

In…

“DIARY

OF A

MADMAN”

…However…

…He Gives Us That “Restraint“…

…And He Then…

…EXPANDS Upon-It.

He’s NOT Just…

Calm, Cool, And Calculating.

NOT. AT. ALL.

He’s ALSO…

…A DAMNED…

…”COMPELLINGLY“…

…”CRAZY-MO-FO“!!!

Sooooooooooo CRAZY…

…You’re Often Left To Wonder…

…”Is This…

…MY VINCENT PRICE“???

His "WORK Within His Work" Is DAMN SURE CREEPY!!!

Once You Come To Terms With The Fact That…

…IT DAMNED SURE IS…

…You Are Instantly…

…”INTRIGUED“!!!

You’ve Seen Him Act Before.

You’ve Seen It Many MANY Times.

You’ve Just NEVER Seen Him Act LIKE THIS!!!

You've (likely) NEVER Seen VINCENT PRICE Act SOOOO WELL!!!

I Sooooooooooooooooo WISH…

…WISH WISH WISH…

…There Were A “VETERAN’S COMITY“…

…For…

…”ACADEMY AWARD OVERSIGHTS“…

…FO FLIPPIN’ SHO!

If There WERE Such An Animal???

And…

…Had VINCENT PRICE…

…EVER EVER EVER…

…Been…

…TRULY…

…”Taken-SERIOUSLY“???

Vincen Price Was NEVER Taken Seriously Enough. PERIOD.

Yeah.

We’d Be Calling Him…

“ACADEMY

AWARD

WINNER

VINCENT

PRICE“

…WITHOUT. A. DOUBT.

PERIOD.

PERIOD.

Has A (rather) Pleasant “Ring To It“…

…DON’T IT, My Peeps!?!?!?!!!!

DAMN

SKIPPY

It

Does!!!

VINCENT PRICE Plays This One SOOOO Amazingly Well, My Peeps. PLEASE CHECK IT OUT!!!

Bradley Alan…

…NOW HAS…

…A NEW…

…”FAVORITE FILM”…

…And…

…COULD NOT BE MORE HAPPY WITH IT!!!

Subtle Is One Thing.

Crazy Is Another.

SUBTLETY…

…AND…

…CRAZY…

…COMBINED???

It Becomes…

…PURE…

…PURE…

…BRILLIANCE!!!
