Vincent Price [1911 - 1993] is best remembered for his distinctive voice and serio-comic attitude in a series of distinctive horror films.

In the 1960s, he had a number of low-budget successes with Roger Corman and American International Pictures (AIP) including the Edgar Allan Poe adaptations House of Usher (1960), The Pit and the Pendulum (1961), Tales of Terror (1962), The Raven (1963), The Masque of the Red Death (1964) and The Tomb of Ligeia (1965). // From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
