The film starring Vincent Price, Mark Damon, Myrna Fahey is directed by Roger Corman. It is about Vincent Price who is the last male in the tragic Usher family. He always is obsessed by murder, crimes of his ancestors so he believes that the death of him and his sister can end everything.
The sickly decadence and claustrophobia of the Usher household is admirably evoked by Floyd Crosby's 'Scope photography and Daniel Haller's art direction.
Lavishly produced and visually gorgeous (thanks to the atmospheric photography of Floyd Crosby), Corman's gothic creepfest is still scary after all these years.
Under the low-budget circumstances, Vincent Price and Myrna Fahey should not be blamed for portraying the decadent Ushers with arch affectation, nor Mark Damon held to account.

Vincent Price starts his scary-reign in colourful gothic horror style.
Weird and a touch silly, but despite being a B-picture made by a B-studio, neither Roger Corman nor Richard Matheson treat the film as a disposable drive-in time-waster.
