'Frankenweenie' Vincent Character Poster

Okay, it's not like it's a secret. Tim Burton loves the Master of Horror, Vincent Price. The Inventor in Burton's 'Edward Scissorhands' is one of the more memorable characters -- scared me, then made me cry.

That Mr. Rzykruski (that's 'doctor' Rzykruski to you and me) from 'Frankenweenie' resembles Price doesn't come as a surprise.

Voiced by Martin Landau (who gave an extremely touching turn as Bela Lugosi in Burton's 'Ed Wood').

Here's the poster. (Thing is, I don't think Price ever played a character that wore glasses. No matter).

And Price in 'Dr. Phibes Rises Again'
