Slaughterhouse Phibes

The Abominable Doctor Phibes has become unstuck in time. He finds himself repeatedly reliving the revenge murders of the doctors he blames for the death of his beloved wife, Victoria, as well as the happy times before the operation that resulted in Victoria's death and the subsequent automobile accident that horribly disfigured Phibes.

More disturbing, with increasing frequency he is experiencing a strange future where he is an inmate in an alien zoo, observed by beings he can't see but knows are there. Worse, his beloved wife Victoria, miraculously revived, is imprisoned in a glass-enclosed cage adjacent to his own, so near and yet forever apart. Dr. Phibes' supreme intellect focusses on escaping his alien prison and wreaking vengeance on the invisible aliens who have so vilely tortured him.

And then a new inmate appears in the zoo.

His name is Billy Pilgrim.

Don't miss the wacky buddy sequel, Billy Pilgrim and the Abominable Doctor Phibes. Coming soon to a screen near you.
