 DATE: This movie is taking place in the year 1925 yet at the end Dr.  Phibes plays "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" which was not written  until ten years later. The automobiles, the airplane, and film  projector (showing the sexy movie) all seem to be models from the  1920s, but the house interiors (including the lights around Dr.  Phibes organ) and clothing appear modern contemporary when the film  was made
