This was a really well done movie, especially for its time. I’m not too familiar with Vincent Price, but he did great in this film and had a very strong presence. They also really did a great job with the dynamics of color during a dream sequence. As for Myrna Fahey, she had a good role, and her character really throws you for a loop in this film.

Great production design, scary paintings, lots of creepy imagery but it's dry and felt too long for the story it had. Mark Damon tried really hard but Vincent Price was so good and effortless! I liked his look with blond hair. Not my favorite gothic horror story.

I did not like Vincent Price as Roderick Usher. My patience was tested as no one in the house would tell poor Winthrop...What was wrong with Madeline? Why they couldn't leave the house? Why Roderick put Madeline in the casket? Where Roderick hid the casket? Etc., Etc.

I understand that this is a Poe story with a Horror icon in the leading role with a legendary producer and amazing screenwriter. I just didn't sense any Horror. Even the sense of dread they so desperately tried to portray just came off as flat. Up to this point, I'd say that this is my least liked Vincent Price role.
