The great Vincent Price stars in this quintessential adaptation of the Edgar Allan Poe story. Hopeful Phillip (Mark Damon) rides up to the crumbling Usher estate to pick up his betrothed, Madeline (Myrna Fahey), and is coldly received by her brother, Roderick (Price). A most unwilling host, Roderick suffers from "morbid acuteness of the senses" and is convinced their family lineage--and the very house itself--is cursed by the evil deeds of their forebears. He is sworn to do everything in his power to keep his sister from leaving with Phillip--even burying her alive--to stop her from continuing their damned lineage. Roger "King of the Bs" Corman got permission from his producers to make this, his first film in color and with a recognizable star, for the same price as two of his usual black-and-white films. The result was a smash hit with critics and audiences, and Corman made seven more. This is still one of the best, with a comparatively restrained performance by Price, good set design and photography, and eerie music by the legendary Les Baxter.

Fall Of The House Of Usher Reviews:

"...A rainy-night blast..." -- Mike Flaherty, Entertainment Weekly

"...Arguably the best film of Corman's career..." -- Mike Clark, USA Today

4 stars top notch Roger Corman
seeing as dvd's look different from tv to tv I can only say this looked clear and detailed but a bit to dark on my tv. On my parents larger tv (both are not widescreen) it's not as dark but looks a little more like video casette quality with just a little improvement over the tape version. I would've needed my tape copy with me to compare it to find out. It's still not a bad job though and the movie is fun.

3 stars Great old classic
This movie gets the viewer emotionally involved in the plot. You may want things to speed up a little bit, but that is what adds to the suspense. Cruel and sad ending........
