Dr. Phibes Rises Again is a horror-comedy film from 1972 starring the legendary Vincent Price as the film's eponymous central character, Dr. Anton Phibes. The movie opens with Dr. Phibes returning to life after being presumed dead for the past three years. As he arises from his tomb, he discovers that his beloved wife, Victoria, is missing, and he sets out on a mission to find her.

Phibes discovers that his wife's resting place was destroyed in an earthquake and her body was never found. He believes that she has been reincarnated, and he sets out to find her in Egypt, where he believes she was last seen. He is joined on his journey by a new assistant, Vulnavia.

As Phibes travels to Egypt, he leaves a trail of death and destruction in his wake. In his quest to find Victoria, he must first obtain the key to the tomb of an Egyptian princess named Nefertiti. However, the key is held by a group of archaeologists, led by a man named Biederbeck, who is also on a mission to find the princess's treasure.

Phibes targets Biederbeck and his team, and as he begins to eliminate them one by one, he enlists the help of a group of locals to help him navigate the dangerous terrain of the Egyptian desert.

As Phibes gets closer to finding Victoria, he is also pursued by a Scotland Yard detective named Trout, who is hot on his trail. Trout is determined to stop Phibes and seeks the help of Biederbeck, who is also on the hunt for Phibes.

The film has a classic 70s feel, with its blend of horror, comedy, and adventure elements. Vincent Price is at his best in the role of Dr. Phibes, bringing his iconic horror and campy style to the character. Robert Quarry is also excellent as the villainous Biederbeck, who is willing to do whatever it takes to get his hands on the treasure.

Valli Kemp, who plays Vulnavia, is a standout in the film, with her striking looks and captivating onscreen presence. Her character is a mysterious and alluring addition to the story, and she proves to be a valuable asset to Phibes in his quest to find Victoria.

The film is directed by Robert Fuest, who also directed the original Dr. Phibes film. Fuest brings his signature visual style to the film, with its striking colors and bold set designs. The film also features a memorable soundtrack, with a mix of classical music and jazz.
