News Briefvia The A.V. Club
The story of filmmaker Stuart Gordon and actor Jeffrey Combs begins and ends with Edgar Allan Poe. Roger Corman sparked it: His Poe adaptations such as House Of Usher and The Pit And The Pendulum, budget-conscious chillers with a sincere, lurid approach to the macabre, captivated Gordon during his formative teenage years and led him to discover Poe’s poetry with all its troubling, romantic imagery.
