House of Usher
It is that strange story about Vincent Price, who is the last male member of the tragic Oscher family, which sparked controversy at some point in his life. The events of that story began when Vincent was obsessed with the murders of his grandfathers and perhaps he was following them. It may be different years later, where he believes his death and his sister could end everything.

A classical vessel for Roger Corman's modernist anxiety

The film is riddled with strangeness and decay, which more than compensate for its clunky moments.

A superlative Corman/AIP effort and a great beginning to a varying but always interesting series of horror films.

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.

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.

It's not precisely the Edgar Allan Poe short story that emerges in House of Usher, but it's a reasonably diverting and handsomely mounted variation.

Vincent Price starts his scary-reign in colourful gothic horror style.
October 06, 2013
Lavishly produced and visually gorgeous (thanks to the atmospheric photography of Floyd Crosby), Corman's gothic creepfest is still scary after all these years.
February 09, 2006
The sickly decadence and claustrophobia of the Usher household is admirably evoked by Floyd Crosby's 'Scope photography and Daniel Haller's art direction.

Corman's filmmaking runs on unchanneled energy and apocalyptic emotions; his is an art without craft.
