Masque of the Red Death

15A89 min

Vincent Price stars as evil Prince Prospero who sells his soul to the devil and then enjoys the latter’s patronage by living the most decadent and lavish lifestyle he can manage. He derides even more pleasure from the perverse satisfaction he takes in seeing his impoverished subjects fall victim to a painful and devastating plague that is sweeping the land.

Based on the classic gothic fiction tale The Mask of the Red Death: A Fantasy by Edgar Allan Poe, The Masque of the Red Death is considered one of the late great Roger Corman’s (The Little Shop of Horrors, The Raven) most distinctive works and an all-time horror classic.
