    I haven’t seen his Poe films, but I did see some of his earlier B&W horror films and I found him to be quie entertaining. Hope to see more soon!

    Thanks Alex for that filmography. Now it’s easier for me to track down Corman’s body of work. I think he’s an interesting director to watch because his movies tend to be both tounge-in-cheek and entertaining!

    I don’t know if you know this and even if worth anything anymore (this being 2010 and all), but the last of the Poe Series, a film named The Haunted Palace, was a Poe story in name only and was actually based around H. P. Lovecrafts The Case of Charles Dexter Ward.
    It’s just meaningful in a way that it makes Haunted Palace the first Lovecraft film adaptation (instead of Die, Monster, Die! wich also starred a very old Boris Karloff). And I do mean meaningful in a way that it interest me as a huge horror film/Lovecraft fan.

    I got to see Fall of the House of Usher in high school when Poe came up in English class. It actually spooked me quite abit!

    Nice i love the works of sir edcur allen poe

  9. peteorite says:

    It’s true that most of these movies aren’t literal adaptations of the works of Poe; in fact ‘The Haunted Palace’ is almost entirely based off H.P. Lovecraft’s ‘The Case of Charles Dexter Ward’. As you might say, “I guess saying it was based off of Poe’s work gave it more marquee appeal.”

    Poe’s fucking awesome. Fucked up in the head he is.

    Roger Corman’s Poe films set the standard for quality in bringing classic literature to the big screen.
