Edgar Allan Poe's House of Usher

2008 · 84 min

A sluggish, low-budget haunted-house mood piece that drifts on atmosphere and bare skin rather than scares.

Tagline: Many Arrive. Few Survive.
Overview: Victor Reynolds arrives at the notorious House of Usher, whereupon he is greeted by old acquaintances Roderick and Madeline Usher and their servant, Markus. As Victor uncovers more about the history of the house and the disappearances of those that entered it previously, he begins to realize that he is in mortal danger.
