Air date: Jun 15, 2024

Tonight on MeTV- we pay tribute to the recently passed cinema icon Roger Corman by presenting one of the films from a series he was known for- based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe- and featuring Vincent Price in the lead role. When a young man journeys to a castle in Spain to investigate his sister’s death, he tries to pry the reason for her demise from her grieving husband- which leads to frightening flashbacks, the revealing of family secrets, and weird ghostly events. Horrifying danger awaits in the castle’s subterranean dungeon that houses “The Pit and the Pendulum”!
