Summary: Love it!
Comment: As another reviewer mentioned, one of the Tales of Terror is actually a combination of "The Black Cat" and "The Cask of Amontillado". I read both stories in my English classes, and then show the video and have the students write a compare/contrast paper. It's a lot of fun right around Halloween, and helps us get into the mood for the holiday. We all especially love the end, when Peter Lorre's head is being tossed back and forth between his wife and Fortunato. Great stuff!

Summary: A HORROR Fan delight
Comment: In the 1960's, Roger Corman directed and produced many of Edgar Allan Poe's novels and short stories to the silver screen. The cast were usually Vincent Price, Peter Lorre and Basil Rathbone with a few appearances by Boris Karloff (The Raven is one of those and is worth every penny if you find it).
This double feature of Poe Tales are suited for these masters of fright and their wonderful acting talents.
Those fans of modern day splatter horror may not get these semi bloodless thriller. However these tales of mayhem may grow on you
Without a doubt, worth every penny to keep in any horror collection

Summary: "The Black Cat" segment is also "Cask of Amontillado"
Comment: Vincent Price & Peter Lorre have great fun in "The Black Cat" segment which also intertwines the plot of "The Cask of Amontillado"- Price's Fortunato insults Lorre's Monstressor by sleeping with his wife, who gets walled up with Price and... well, there's where even more fun begins!
"Morella" and "M. Valdemar" are also good scary fun, but it's "The Black Cat" that makes the show. Alas, I have not yet seen "Twice Told Tales".

Summary: Love Vincent and Peter
Comment: I had Tales of Terror on VHS when I was a kid and have looked for it everywhere on DVD. The Black Cat is the best of the three. Peter Lorre and Vincent Price are brilliant. I hadn't seen twice told tales before, it's campy, but the old horror quality of the film and Vincent make-up for it.
Definitely a must for fans of Vincent, Peter, Edgar Allan Poe, and anyone who loves old style horror!
