The Price May Be Right - Number 24
Welcome to “The Price May Be Right!” I’m counting down My Top 31 Favorite Vincent Price Performances & Appearances! The countdown will cover movies, TV productions, and many more forms of media. Today’s pick proves how truly devilish dear Vincent could be! Today we focus on Number 24: Mr. Scratch, from The Story of Mankind.
Tumblr media
This is another character I addressed before on a previous countdown. Specifically, when I did my list of my Top 31 Favorite Portrayals of the Devil, Price’s turn as the wicked Mr. Scratch ranked Number 11 on the list. A lot of what I say here may be reiterating stuff I said there and then, so do bear with me if I feel a bit repetitive. With that said: “The Story of Mankind” is a bizarre little picture from 1957. It was the brainchild of Irwin Allen, a director and producer known for his colorful, campy style of filmmaking. The movie focuses on a great trial being held in the cosmos themselves: a gathering of divine beings are trying to judge the fate of the Earth. It’s revealed that humanity has invented a new weapon of mass destruction, which – if they choose to use it – could potentially lead to the destruction of the entire human race. The decision must be made whether to intervene and prevent mankind from using the bomb, or to let humanity make the choice and risk destroying themselves entirely. Price plays – as I stated before – the Devil himself, who acts as the prosecutor at the trial. Opposing him in the defense box is the Spirit of Man, played by Ronald Colman. The two are given power by the divine tribunal to present examples of man’s folly’s and failings, as well as humanity’s triumphs and achievements. Each may show people and points in time to illustrate their arguments. So, while the Spirit of Man presents such figures as Abe Lincoln and Moses, Mr. Scratch presents the evils of people like Hitler and Nero. This movie, to be quite honest, is not very good, and nearly all of its major problems stem from two places: casting and tone. The tone of this movie is all over the place, ranging from farcical comedy to moralizing dramatics. This is reflected in the casting, which is scattershot, to say the least: Dennis Hopper plays perhaps the most American Napoleon you’ll ever see in your life, and whatever numb-nut decided to cast the Marx Brothers as Sir Isaac Newton, Peter Minuit, and a random Monk should be dragged into the street and slapped with a fish. Things that should be taken seriously cannot be, and things that should be funny often come across as dumb. As a result, the movie is a truly absurd and mind-boggling experience. HOWEVER, for all the epic fails found in the cast list…Vincent Price as the Devil is the most perfect casting you’ll ever find in your life. Price honestly MAKES this movie; from his narration sequences to his physical performance onscreen, he owns every scene and every line effortlessly. He makes some of the silliest gags truly entertaining, and manages to present a picture of evil that is as elegant and charming as it is thoroughly reprehensible. For all the problems in this movie, Price is never among them, and he helps to keep this picture from sinking too far under. Honestly, I feel sort of bad for ranking this performance so low – again, it’s a little tough to beat VINCENT PRICE AS THE DEVIL – but I think the major issue is just that the movie, itself, sort of drags him down in the ranks. Hopefully the many roles still to come will make up for it all. Tomorrow, the countdown continues with my pick for Number 23!

week two: phone sex
Tumblr media
nsfw, oral sex, dirty talk, toy used, implies tall!reader wc: 534 summary: buying a phone from robin was a mistake.
Tumblr media
Buying a phone from Robin changed your farm life. You didn’t need to travel to her house to see her stock or prices, you got to call the saloon, and Pierre’s to see what he was selling for the day.
However, having the phone did come with prank callers and Vincent randomly checking in on you.
One rainy day, you and Haley were hanging out in your cottage. You had been dating for a while and the intimacy between you two intensified. The first time you two had sex was heavenly. Literally. You two roleplayed as an angel and devil and it was obvious who played each role.
“I’m bored.” She sighed, standing up from the couch. You followed her and wrap an arm around her shoulder.
“Well, there’s a lot we can do.” You suggested. “Watch TV, cook together, feed the animals—”
“No.” Haley disagreed. She turned to you, tip-toes, gently pinned you against the wall, and placed a soft kiss on your lips. Your kiss picked up, to the point where you were taking each other’s clothes off.
Ring. Ring. Ring.
You rolled your eyes, stopped the kiss, and grabbed the phone.
“Hello?” You asked, trying not to moan. Haley’s lips went down from your cheek to your collarbone and your chest.
“Hi! It’s Robin!” The carpenter sang.
“Ah fuck—” You whispered as your lover knelt down. She started kissing you, licking her tongue around you, sighing happily as you twitched and nearly lose your composure. “I mean ah, my fudge!”
“You baking brownies, farmer?” Robin asked.
“U-Um yeah, trying out a new recipe from Zuzu City.”
You heard Haley leave for a little bit, probably to get a pillow or blanket to kneel on. Grateful, you continued your conversation.
“So what do you want to talk about?”
“Oh! I noticed your coop isn’t upgraded yet. I think you should consider doing that because you are probably buying more animals…” Robin chatted endlessly about the farm.
You masked a moan as Haley motioned you to lean on the kitchen counter. You felt your toy she bought for you at your entrance. She knelt down again and kissed you, adding tongue around your rim.
Haley lubed up her fingers and inserted one gently..then two…then three…then, she stood up on a nearby chair, and thrusted the dildo inside. She was prepared and had it attached to a belt. When it came to lovemaking, she wasn’t soft as you expected.
She was thrusting hard, grabbing your hair and making you look up.
“You look so sexy babe,” she whispered, kissing your forehead. You felt like you were on fire, your body trembling with pleasure.
“…and you need another well…”
You mouthed out her name, squeezing your eyes shut. Haley gave you one last thrust and quickly jumped down from the chair. She pushed you back, straddled your lap, and kissed your chest, biting your nipples. Then she knelt down and roughly kissed your front.
“…how’s this phone treatin’ ya?”
“I like it!” You yelled into the phone. “Fuck having a phone is awesome!”
Robin didn’t hesitate to end the call. In fact, she was pretty impressed with how long you lasted while having the conversation.

Chris: Late Night with the Devil is a horror film about a 1970s tv broadcast about the occult that goes wrong, this looks and feels like a cult film on the first viewing meaning this is one of the better horror films in years, David Dastmalchian is a “must watch” actor now on the road to become a modern Vincent Price, Watch: On Subscription Service.
Richie: It got so many things right, it was a really fun watch, Watch: On Subscription Service.

I'm having so many ideas and not enough energy to do or finish any of them AAAAAAAAAAAA-
Just so that I don't just wallow in my inability to get off my ass and do this shit, I'm going to type it all down!
1. The Haunted Mansion movie (done right!)
- This one is actually based on a slew of Discord convos between me and AJ (@sneklover). It was mostly just me ranting about how God awful Disney's live action remakes are getting and what I would've done if I were to make the iconic attraction a film or t.v. show.
- I have seen the original live action Haunted Mansion movie with Eddie Murphy but not the newest one, BUT MY POINT STILL STANDS! Both are literally the same thing where the story focuses more on the Foolish Mortals than the Happy Haunts and I do not like that.
- If I were to film a Haunted Mansion movie/show, I would make it an anthology horror movie. Think Tales From The Crypt or Creepshow but with Master Gracey telling the stories behind iconic characters such as the Hatbox Ghost, Constance Hatchaway, the two Dueling Ghosts in the ballroom, etc. At some point towards the end, Master Gracey would then tell his story, of how he inherited the mansion, was cursed as the Ghost Host by the mansion itself, and how he tried in vain to lift the curse.
- I remember telling my mom about my idea and, while she loved it, did say that Disney would not like it because they want to put out a more broad demographic. "They're not catering to us," she said (paraphrased). Which makes sense, I just jokingly mentioned to AJ how Disney wouldn't hire me for stuff like this lmao.
- My Haunted Mansion would be a love letter to the Gothic Horror genre and dark humor. An old Louisiana mansion that's haunted in more ways than one, its owner an unwilling slave on the brink of insanity, and all the tales of death kept within its walls. And these tales are nothing short of harrowing, as well as hilarious!
2. Vincent Price x Self-Insert Fanart
- I love this old man so fucking much I wanna kiss him I wanna dance with him I wanna cuddle with him I wanna slowly drive him into insanity so that I can see him smile lovingly at me I wanna be the harbinger of his downfall and his eternal bride aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa- 🖤🖤🖤😩🙌🥴🥴🥴
- So yeah, pretty much what it says on the tin. I was inspired by the very talented @theboarsbride for the idea and Corman's The Masque of the Red Death, starring the Handsome Devil of Horror himself Vincent Price, and wanted to make an AU.
- Masque AU where Francesca (the main character) does give in to the dark side, but of her own volition, transforming into the Red Death. The Red Death is both a Reaper and a Resurrection - a purveyor of plagues and a damsel turned demon. A Bride in Blood...
- It's basically a sort of rewrite of the original ending and now it's sorta... 🌶️spoicy🌶️ so, um.... yea. smexy monster lady x human stuffs.
- ANYWAYS...!
3. Walt Disney's The Great Mouse OC
- I've been wanting to do something with the GMD fandom for a long while now, and I think a hypothetical OC from an hypothetical sequel fanfic would be a good introduction!
- So, in a nutshell: She's a mad scientist spider who is the new secondary villain of said sequel. She has no name as of yet, but she is mute (either from an injury or is simply nonverbal), extremely passionate about her grotesque experiments, and very, very lonely. Unlike Ratigan, the Greatest Criminal Mind, she is more somewhat spontaneous, preferring the tasks of stitching her family together over anything tactic. In other words, she's the brawns while Ratigan is the brains (and brawns). Her goal in villainy is to build and destroy - to build her long lost family and to destroy all of micedom.
- While she is the one who caused the whole case, the main focus on the story is mainly the ✨tension✨ between Basil and Ratigan. In other words, opening up old wounds... by resurrecting the dead!
- Yup, Sherlock Holmes: Furry Edition is now becoming a Gothic horror story. Heavily inspired by Little Nightmares II, Jack the Ripper, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, the sequel is a tale of murder and madness, with a bloodcurdling case and a rivalry that won't stay dead.
- In this fanfic, I interpreted that Ratigan did die in GMD and so that he could be resurrected by my OC in the sequel! I also wanted to have Fidget resurrected but AJ doesn't like to think of her lil guy dead, so... Yeah, Ratigan is the Frankenstein's Monster and Phantom of the Opera of the plot. (POTO because I thought of the sequel's climax being set during an opera)
- Meanwhile, Basil and Dawson are having a Very Bad Time, with Basil constantly being haunted by the professor and Dawson mentally reliving his days at the regiment.
- Disney will never hire me.

Tw: gore, light gore, beheading, blood
Tumblr media
So I don’t like The Story of Mankind at all, I think it’s painfully boring and the only character that’s worthwhile is Vincent Price’s Devil (mr Scratch), but otherwise this film is well forgotten by history. I also think it’s a heinous sin to cast Lorre as Nero and not do anything with him! He’s just sitting there, like a prop, and while his speciality is playing fucked up men! I find that unforgivable. This was the heyday of the sword and sandal flic, they could’ve leaned in a lot more into portraying mankind’s fucked up despots and made a gloriously campy Caligula-esque pic (and maybe even recycled some Ben Hur sets) which could’ve given Lorre and Price more to work with.
Alas, Hayes Code and wheepy sentimental Calvinist messaging sabotages my dreams once again!
