Directed by Roger Corman
Probably the earliest completely self-aware "horror" film from Roger Corman, and one of the most entertaining in many ways. The effects are corny, the acting is over-the-top, the dialogue does a great job at matching that tone, and the look/setting is actually pretty awesome in a gothic sort of way. Worth watching even if just for the final wizard duel, and seeing Vincent Price, Boris Karloff, Peter Lorre, and a young Jack Nicholson all in the same picture. Fun, goofy, and surprisingly ahead of its time.
★★★★★★★☆☆☆
