One of my favorite finds this year. Incredible dense slow atmosphere. The mystery of it is all too intriguing. A great original castle horror.
Delicious.
Simply exquisite, I am always so in awe of Vincent Price
Just an excellent film that has a wonderful cast of characters and a haunting setting. While it is a bit short, The Fall of The House of Usher utlizes all of its resources to tell a compelling tale about a deeply disturbed family and the unfortunate young man who becomes involved.
A great Price movie but I'd rank it as his 7th best of the ones I've seen.
