Directed by Roger Corman
A high point in the careers of Roger Corman and Vincent Price. This beautifully-shot Poe adaptation is one of the darker films in Corman's filmography, and a great example of just how great a filmmaker he really is. Theatrical, poetic, darkly cynical, and morbidly entertaining, I see this movie almost as Corman's take on The Seventh Seal -- one I consider to be one of the greatest films ever made. Though this obviously doesn't hold a title that strong, I still really dig its style and scope.
★★★★★★★☆☆☆
