Product Description

Product Description

HE BURIED HER ALIVE... TO SAVE HIS SOUL!

When exploitation maestro Roger Corman decided to raise his game by hiring Vincent Price to star in an adaptation of a classic tale by Edgar Allan Poe, he set in train a series of Poe adaptations that would redefine American horror cinema.

When Philip Winthrop (Mark Damon) visits his fiancée Madeleine Usher (Myrna Fahey) in her crumbling family mansion, her brother Roderick (Price) tries to talk him out of the wedding, explaining that the Usher family is cursed and that extending its bloodline will only prolong the agony. Madeleine wants to elope with Philip, but neither of them can predict what ruthless lengths Roderick will go to in order to keep them apart.

Richard Matheson's intelligent, literate script is enhanced by Floyd Crosby's stylish widescreen cinematography, but it's Vincent Price's anguished conviction in one of his signature roles that makes the film so chillingly memorable over half a century on.

Special Features:

  • High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentation
  • Optional English SDH subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
  • Audio commentary with director and producer Roger Corman
  • Interview with director and former Corman apprentice Joe Dante
  • Through the Pale Door: A Specially-commissioned video essay by critic and filmmaker David Cairns examining Corman s film in relation to Poe s story
  • Archival interview with Vincent Price
  • Original Trailer
  • Collector s booklet featuring new writing on the film by author and critic Tim Lucas and an extract from Vincent Price s long out of print autobiography, illustrated with original archive stills and posters
  • And more to be announced!

    5.0 out of 5 starsA great blu ray!
    By Adrian Drew TOP 500 REVIEWER on 28 Aug. 2013
    Format: Blu-ray
    Roger Corman decision to hire Vincent Price for his American International Pictures adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's classic tales resulted in a critical and commercial success story way beyond his expectations and his first attempt in "The Fall of the House of Usher" originally entitled "House of Usher", is one of his finest films.

    The story of Philip Winthrop (Mark Damon) visiting his fiancée Madeleine Usher (Myrna Fahey) in the family mansion of the title where her brother Roderick (Vincent Price in one of his finest and well thought out roles) clearly has problems of his own is quite close to the Poe original and the elaborate and ornate visual style of the film mirrors well Poe's highly wrought prose - an element well complemented by Richard Matheson's literate script and Floyd Crosby's stylish widescreen cinematography.

    Arrow Video's new high quality Blu-ray retains the original aspect ratio of 2.35:1 on this Region B locked dual-layer disc.

    Despite a few minor print (and original production) issues the high-definition transfer ( made from a mint 35mm interpositive) is admirable with vivid colours (truly popping reds!) and excellent saturation, and black levels and extraordinary detail throughout when the original material allows such a presentation. Film grain remains intact and there is no over- sharpening or machine noise anywhere. What flaws exist (some discolouration and shifting print quality) is probably an original production issue. Don't forget the production budgets for these movies were tiny and Corman created a minor miracle in producing his stunning on screen production values.    Read more ›

    5.0 out of 5 starsTHE FIRST AND THE BEST
    By B FAN on 21 Jun. 2014
    Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
    This was the fist of the POE movies that was done for AIP by CORMAN and starring VINCENT PRICE.i have loved this movie since i saw it in the 60s i think the thing that got me about this movie was it was shot in full scope which was rare in those days as the HAMMER movies were shot in widescreen'. Well let me say this disc is fantastic the col is rich the picture is nice and sharp the sound is nice and clear and loads of extras.I cant fault this disc i am sure some one will but not me the only thing ARROW now have a big problem how can they top this perfect disc.Please note this movie is on 16mm on 2 2000 ft spools

    Excellent bluray. Even better with the restoration of the 'full' title. Highly recommended. Bring on more Corman, especially 'Tomb of Ligeia'.
