Vincent Price, John Kerr, Barbara Steele, Luana Anders and Antony Carbone star in Roger Corman's 1961 horror film based on Edgar Allan Poe's novel. Kerr plays Francis Barnard, a man who comes to Spain to visit his sister, Elizabeth (Steele). He arrives at the Medina Mansion owned by her husband, Nicholas Medina (Price) and learns she passed months before due to a blood clot. Francis also meets Nicholas' sister, Catherine (Anders) and friend, Charles Leon who is a doctor. Francis also learns of the torture chamber in the Medina house where Nicholas' father, Sebastian (Also played by Price) inflicted pain and suffering. Soon, Nicholas is haunted by a voice sounding like Elizabeth's and suspects she's still alive. This is definitely one of Price's best with a good cast and eerie atmosphere I highly recommend.
