TALES OF TERROR (1962)



 The main draw here, of course, is seeing Vincent Price in three tales based on Edgar Allen Poe short stories acting up a storm as always.
 Directed by Roger Corman(his 4th Poe adaptation) the stories themselves don't always make much sense and stuff seems to happen very willy-nilly, especially in the first and last parts, but it's great seeing Price in pretty much anything. You also get Basil Rathbone and Peter Lorre in there with Lorre even managing to outdo Price in the second chapter as a drunk who gets revenge on his cheating wife and that whole segment(THE BLACK CAT) is definitely the highlight for me since you get two horror icons together playing off each other. Worth checking out even if just for that part.
