Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi teamed up for the first time in director Edgar G. Ulmer's macabre Pre-code chiller that borrows the title (and little else) from Edgar Allan Poe. A Balkan castle, built over a WWI graveyard, is the site for a bizarre battle of wills between psychiatrist Dr. Vitus Werdegast (Lugosi) and devil-worshipping cult leader Hjalmar Poelzig (Karloff). With David Manners, Julie Bishop. 65 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
