Newly released on laser disc, "Theater of Blood" is a 1973
British flick that deserves a second look for those of you who
might have passed over it on home video.
Vincent Price is Edward Lionheart, a theater actor who has
dedicated his life to overwrought, hammy performances of
Shakespeare plays. As with most temperamental actor-types,
Lionheart believes his performances brilliant. But the London
Theater Critics Organization fails to recognize this at their
annual awards ceremony. When Lionheart loses to a young upstart,
he flings himself into the Thames in a suicidal fit. His soaked
and nearly dead body dragged from the river by a group of
schizophrenic homeless, Lionheart begins to plan his elaborate
revenge from beyond the grave . . .
