Vincent Price narrates four stories from Edgar Allen Poe in front of a live audience: The Tell-Tale Heart, The Sphinx, The Cask of Amontillado and The Pit and the Pendulum. If you love Edgar Allen Poe and want an accurate recital of his work, then this is definitely for you. There's nothing too fancy here, just a simple recital of Poe's works. There are four lavish sets, each one appropriate for the story Price is telling. Since AIP released Witchfinder General (and had the nerve to draw a reference to The Conqueror Worm) the Poe franchise never held the facet accuracy in high regard. This, however, is a great addition to the catalog of Price films, and spoken word-for-word as Poe would have intended. An added bonus to consider is that this great feature is bundled in the same package with The Tomb of Ligeia. Sprint over the hills and through the graveyard to pick up this awesome set!
