I watched it yesterday, and it was amazing! It has that, "Fall of the House of Usher" feel to it. I love the history, the mystery, the deception and the diabolical intrigue. I never once suspected Price's character of being a drug addict! When he sarcastically said to Miranda that she probably thought the tower room was where he performed his satanic rituals, I was actually expecting to find something just that creepy. Thank you so much for the suggestion!IAMAYNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02560553079122240077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-833161426229360042.post-81052897017830808372010-04-08T11:46:43.629-04:002010-04-08T11:46:43.629-04:00Wonderful post.

Vincent Price was magnificent and Gene Tierney was excellent as well.
