    When the great-grandson of a warlock (Vincent Price, in both roles) inherits a crumbling palace in Arkham, Massachusetts, bad things are sure to follow for local villagers whose ancestors burnt the magician at the stake. A fun, eerie and artificial atmosphere and a good performa...( read more)nce by Price, but like most Roger Corman-directed products of the era it has poor effects and drags at times. From a story by H.P. Lovecraft.

    Not a Poe adaption this time but a Lovecraft one, The Haunted Palace is one of my favorite Corman/Price movies. The atmosphere, story and performances are all fantastic. Recommended for genre fans!

    Another great Vincemt Price Horror Ole School Video. As Most of his others its outstanding. Glad he wasn't my creepy Grandpa. Add to your collection, you will be happy.

    Marvelous exercise in Grand Guignol, great sets, spooky atmosphere, fine screenplay by scenarist Charles Beaumont based on H.P. Lovecraft's The Strange Case of Charles Dexter Ward, and a splendid two-tiered performance by Vincent Price.

    Vincent Price and Lovecraft make an eerie combination.

    does alot with a little

    Corman tries to pass this off as Poe but it's not nearly as successful as other Price teamings. Maybe I was hoping for a little more of Vincent's ham on a man who is battling possessions from a distant relative.
