bearded man becomes disfigured and reconstructs his facial features; later tries to use acid/wax on another character to disfigure/kill them, only to have that character saved in the nick of time.
The Armoire in the bedroom of the first victim can also be seen in the Elizabeth Taylor film. Also, the bust seen behind the bottles Phibes is filling with Dr Longstreet's blood can be briefly seen just before Robert Mitchum first appears.
The character of Dr. Phobos is actually an allusion to the character of Dr. Phibes, from the movie The Abominable Dr. Phibes and its sequel Dr. Phibes Rises Again, which was played by Vincent Price.
The tagline for "The Abominable Dr. Phibes" (1971) ("Love means never having to say you're ugly") spoofs a quote from "Love Story" (1970) ("Love means never having to say you're sorry")
