The Pit and The Pendulum

One of my favorite shock theater movies, Roger Corman's 1961 film adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's The Pit and The Pendulum is a classic creep fest. The film stars Vincent Price as the diabolical husband who kills his wife in a slow and agonizing death. Sorry no details, just watch the movie. The film also stars Luana Anders, who also starred in another horror classic directed by Frances Ford Copolla Dementia 13. If you are a fan of those awesome 1960's Satuday afternoon shock theater films, you're going to love The Pit and The Pendulum.
