07/27/2014 A shy librarian named Edgar kills his best friend over a woman, and is driven mad by the sound of a beating heart coming from under the floorboards. The new sexual frustration plot devised here to draw Edgar Allan Poe's short story out to feature length really isn't very interesting or much in Poe's spirit. See more 12/12/2013 No where as classic or truthful as the story. While it keeps many of the same elements, it's missing the themes and the overall creepiness, plus it leaves out a lot of the good bits. Slow story, and a rather dumb overused end twist. Not my favorite adaption. See more 11/19/2012 Builds slowly to some memorable horror scenes--Very good Poe adaptation!! See more 07/28/2012 worth a late night viewing of this poe adaptation. See more 06/28/2011 Carl's advice to Edgar reminds me of the American Dad! episode where Stan yells 'Intercourse!' at passing women. See more 05/12/2011 Rarely seen 1960 British adaption of the Edgar Allen Poe story starring Laurence Payne and Adrienne Corri. This adaptation adds a host of new things to what was in the original story, not surprising given the length of the story and is surprisingly gory for 1960. Pretty good. See more Read all reviews
