VHS Movie Reviews of Tell Tale Heart (1971)
Movie Review: A True Poe Classic
Summary: 4 Stars
There are many videos depicting Poe's tales, Tales of Terror is one, but this one truly is gripping. Unlike other films, this one has an unnamed narrator--one of Poe's motifs--and closely follows the short story. It is black & white. I teach 10th grade and love to use this film. It captures the essence of haunting fascination with death, insanity, and retribution from the grave that Poe is all about. In class when I start the film, I usually hear a crack or two about not wanting to watch some dumb black & white film, but within five minutes, the room is silent except for the film. The narrator does a really great job, and when the climax approaches, the sound effects increase making it a sit on the edge of your seat experience.
I highly recommend this film if you are a die hard Poe fan. It's been around for a really long time (at least 30 years) and is a true classic.
