Tales of Terror (1962)

Another trio of stories starring Vincent Price, this time they are loosely based on stories by Edgar Allan Poe. In the first story, we have Price being visited by his adult daughter whom he blames for killing his wife in childbirth. In the second, Peter Lorre is tormented by his wife, her cat, and her lover in life and in death. And in the last, Basil Rathbone is a hypnotist who captures Price at the point between life and death in order to take advantage of him and his wife. There are neat special effects and bits of horror sprinkled between all three. The second tale is the best of the lot, infusing a bit of humor between Price and Lorre in between the tension.   Horror
