Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Smoreni Zmaj This movie can hardly be considered to be an adaptation of Poe, because it barely has any touch points. They are built on the same base, but the construction is completely different. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but in this case it is. Ideas that changed Poe's story are not that bad, but the realization is lousy. The complete scenery screams FAKE, the story is inconsistent, acting mediocre, directing like in porn, and ending knocks the final nail in the coffin. If we simply cut the last scene and end movie with the one before, without any changes, we'll get an average '80s B horror ending. Why did they feel the need to additionally annoy viewers, already annoyed by wasting an hour and a half on a crappy movie, by adding terribly stupid, inconsistent, illogical and most of all redundant nonsense to the movie that already had a decent ending in the previous scene... I have a feeling that team, who spent their lives making porn exclusively, suddenly decided to make Poe adaptation. If that's true, good job guys, but if it's not the case, then please, change profession, or at least keep your hands off of classics.4/10

westley34 This movies starts put okay, gets bad about a quarter of the way through, and just keeps getting worse and worse as it goes on. Unless you are into really bad '80s horror I definitely suggest skipping this really horrible movie. The only upside is Oliver Reed gives a pretty good (though disturbing) performance. Pleasence really hams it up though. This is a complete butchering of Poe's story.

lord_nikon78 This depiction of Edgar Allen Poe's classic tale is a big joke. I never bash movies but this film had unrealistic acting and came off to me a just plain humorous. Retro 80's music is great, but fails to tell a valid story without seeming comical. Tries to maintain seriousness but ultimately fails. All of Oliver Reed's reaction scenes towards smells are too funny. Possible conception of the house "settling" and falling apart may symbolize how Usher's decomposition in health is apparent. The only reason you should consider viewing this film is the great Donald Pleasence plays Usher's brother. Terrible looking fake sets combined with boring visuals leaves this film to be a yawner. Unnecessary ending...Viewer beware!

todd2u There are only a few parts in the movie I liked. the rest wasn't even scary at all. The acting was good but I really didn't care for this story to be updated. I guess the gore was OK. The music was ok. It was to 80's. Over all I don't really recommend this movie to anyone cause it just wasn't worth watching. It really didn't catch my attention at all. Maybe if your board watch it but thats it.
