Moloch filmklubb presenterer: The Raven (1963)

[Bilde]

Clever dialogue, gothic scenery, and three old masters of horror make this film a delight to watch over and over again. It is not very often one gets a chance to see three horror legends – Boris Karloff, Vincent Price, and Peter Lorre (plus a young Jack Nicholson).
In any movie, especially one with competent and stylized direction by a Roger Corman and a witty script by some guy named Richard Matheson (a legend in the horror and sci-fi genres and the one author that influenced Stephen King more than any other).
The story has virtually nothing to do with the Poe poem, but who cares with a cast like this. Peter Lorre steals every scene he is in and chews the scenery left and right. Hazel Court has a small role as the beautiful Lenore, and she turns in a good performance as well. But in the end it is the King of Horror and the Crown Prince of Horror.
