Having watched The Black Cat this weekend, I decided I wanted to read the #movie's inspiration, #EdgarAllenPoe's story of the same name.

It's a gruesome tale that bears no resemblance to the film, other than both having a black cat. They're both creepy in their own way.

The film that actually comes closer is one part of #Corman's Tales of Terror. Fortunately, it, too, isn't as gruesome as the original story, plus we get the classic contest between Vinnie & Peter Lorre. https://youtu.be/yoYmkjmplig?feature=shared

That's why we love Vincent Price (Roger Corman's Tales of Terror - 1962)
