Dr. Phibes returns for today's classic trailer spotlight in 1972's Dr. Phibes Rises Again. Starring Vincent Price, the horror sequel also features appearances from Peter Cushing and Robert Quarry, who classic horror fans know best as Count Yorga.

"That bizarre evil genius, the abominable Dr. Phibes, is back with all his old diabolical devilry. The sequel to The Abominable Dr. Phibes again features Vincent Price as one of his most perfect horror villains in his long list of evil-doers.

The eminent Dr. Phibes awakens from a decade of suspended animation and heads to Egypt with his mute aide-de-camp Vulnavia and the corpse of his dead wife. To resurrect his spouse, Phibes gets up to his usual diabolic tricks: cleverly murdering people in strange and heinous ways to invoke a magical incantation. But once he is in the tomb of the dead Pharaohs, the good doctor discovers that his pursuit of the after-life may be foiled by his nemesis who wants to end the reign of this sadistic surgeon of gore."
