The original "Dr. Phibes" wasn't that bad, it was entertaining and the baroque ways in which the vindictive Doctor killed his victims were so ingenious. Now, this sequel is a complete mess, everything is really absurd in it, and the production... Full review

This movie is so similar to the original that I sometimes have trouble remembering which crazy diabolical way of murdering his enemies occurred in which movie. Dr. Phibes returns (even though we DISTINCTLY saw him kill himself in the last... Full review

Not as good as the first Phibes movie (The Abominable Dr...) but jolly good fun, so long as you're not expecting a horror movie! This is a comedy! The double act of Peter Jeffrey and John Cater as the bumbling... Full review

Dr Phibes Rises Again is the sequel to the magnificent 'The Abominable Dr Phibes'. The original film achieved cult classic status through a magnificent performance from Vincent Price as the vengeful doctor of the title, and an over the top,... Full review
Good to see more of Phibes and his magical/Gothic/Art Deco world.

Just saw the movie on DVD. I have never seen it before and I am glad I found it. Of course this is an almost unnecessary re-working of the first movie but it is great for those like myself who... Full review
He rises again, all right

Often disappointing, uninspired and overall dull sequel to The Abominable Dr. Phibes. The original easily is one of the most pleasant and creative horror movies ever made while this sequel answers to the prototype idea of an unnecessary extra adventure.... Full review

The juxtapositioning of lame one-liners and overused sight gags with some rather memorable and disturbing murders are what this film is all about. Its all of a rather low quality in virtually all respects, yet with Vincent Price as a... Full review

After watching the sublime THE ABOMINABLE DR PHIBES, I wanted to see the sequel and hoped that it would be as good and as original as the first flick. What I saw, instead, was one of the worst sequels I've... Full review
