    I love those old corman/price flicks.Corman put out some real shitbangers,but this is’nt one of them.Christopher Lee plays the red death.If you liked “Pit and the pendulum” or “House of Usher” this has the same kinda vibe.

    The funny thing about this movie is I just read Edgar Allen Poe’s short story “Masque of the Red Death” in my English class. I thought it was a very creative way to describe the bubonic plague.
