Whispering Mute? Huh?

13 years, 7 months ago at Sep 29 17:21
Now this is one freaky hilarious film. I love this film because it's so terrible. Jack Nicholson's Andre from France, or as he says "I'm ANN-drey from Fraaance." Goodness his accent is horrible but funny. He plays a French soldier, whom rides on a horse. However in many scenes, the horse changes color..aka different horse hahaha. There's a mute, who can whisper...yea and creepy tombstone/graveyard... read more

Well this movie is an interesting one. It's a dark humor horror movie and probably the most "Poe" one as Vincent Price recites a lot of the poem at the start and one line at the end. It's not one of my favourites, due to it being very slow at the start, but it's not bad overall. I find some of the other dark humor movies funnier too. The funny thing about watching this is seeing how bad Jack Nicho... read more

Classic Price, Lorre and Karloff movie

1 year, 10 months ago at Jul 14 12:34
For a long time I have loved The Raven, always have found funny and spooky with great lead performances and atmosphere. And I still think that. The special effects are a little dated, but are not bad enough to upset the film too much. Besides the Gothic settings are lavish and add to the atmosphere wonderfully. The throw-away one-liners and the dialogue in general is very clever, witty and arch, w... read more

"Plot: A powerful sorcerer is dragged into a duplicitous power struggle by a couple of his occultic compatriots. One of Roger Corman's many adaptations of Poe's work, The Raven uses the famous poem as a springboard for a fantastical plot about wizards vying for great power. Sounds dark but it's actually a light-hearted, humorous affair led by the charm and prowess of three horror heavies (Vincent Price, Boris Karloff, and Peter Lorre). In lesser hands the material might show how thin it truly i"

Classic Price, Lorre and Karloff movie

“For a long time I have loved The Raven, always have found funny and spooky with great lead performances and atmosphere. And I still think that. The special effects are a little dated, but are not bad enough to upset the film too much. Besides the Gothic settings are lavish and add to the atmosphere wonderfully. The throw-away one-liners and the dialogue in general is very clever, witty and arch, while the story while not bearing resemblance much to the Poe poem is thrilling in the duel between Price and Karloff and with a great atmosphere. The cast are brilliant. It was nice to see a young Jack Nicholson, and Hazel Court is a lovely presence. But the three leads are the main selling points. Boris Karloff's eerie command wonderfully sends up his classic screen image. Vincent Price is as eve” read more

"23.6. Blu-ray Seuraava Corman-Poe-Price -ringin elokuva vaihtaakin kÀytÀnnössÀ kokonaan komediaksi ja se ei lupaavan alun jÀlkeen harmillisesti tÀytÀ kaikkia odotuksia hullaannuttavasta pelleilystÀ. Vincent Pricen ja Boris Karloffin vÀlinen loppukliimaksin taikurointimatsi on vÀlillÀ huikeaa ja vÀlillÀ tylsÀÀ paskaa. Peter Lorrea parempaa korppia on vaikea keksiÀ ja Jack Nicholson on palikoiden kuningas. Teknisesti erittÀin taidokas halpis on tÀmÀkin."
