Vincent Price was some sort of sorcerer and all I actually remember was he would look in different directions and recite numbers. He’d look one direction and say the word “seven” seven times, then look another direction and say “five” five times, look another direction and say “six” six times.

It was just a fellow repeating numbers and it scared the crap outta me. Can’t explain it. Must have been late at night and I probably shouldn’t have been up with this witchcraft. Of course, Vincent Price could literally read a phone book and creep me out. That’s just about what he was doing. I’d estimate it was 1972 but it was TV so the movie was probably released long before that. It was in color.

Vincent Price IMDB IDK but here's his cinematic career. They have some screen captures that might help identify the film.

I can't find exactly what you are looking for but there was a show called Night Gallery. Price played a sorcerer on the episode "Return of the Sorcerer"

He also played a sorcerer in The Raven movie from 1963 but it was black and white I think.

I remember The Raven starring Vincent Price, Boris Karloff, Peter Lorre, and Jack Nicholson being in color.

That sounds like something I’d like to see anyway. I’m going to try to find it.

Slight drift: You want to see Vincent Price before he went all in on horror, TCM is airing the classic film noir "Laura" tonight.

Shoot, I can’t find this episode anywhere.
