If Boris Karloff is the #1 horror movie star of all time, you'd have to say Vincent Price is #2--I can't think of anyone as associated the macabre than he, an image he managed to maintain all the way into the 1990s.
Like Karloff, Vincent Price had a reputation outside of his films as a kind, gentle, highly thoughtful man, which made watching him do all these horrible things in movies such a wonderful study in contrast.
To that end, this tag line seemed obvious, and it was just a matter of matching it with an appropriately suspicious-looking shot of Price--not something too hard to find!

Price is my #1 old school horror icon. Karloff, Lugosi, Raines, either Chaney-- none compare.
Very cool one, Rob! Price is a classic.
