Vincent Price is known for having starred in numerous films based on stories by Edgar Allan Poe. Price traded in Poe for Nathaniel Hawthorne in 1963’s Twice Told Tales. Now you can trade in your DVD for a Blu-ray.
In Sidney Saklow’s Twice Told Tales, the horror icon played three characters in three different stores based on the writings of Nathaniel Hawthorne:
In the first story, titled “Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment,” Heidegger attempts to restore the youth of three elderly friends. In “Rappaccini’s Daughter” Price plays a demented father inoculating his daughter with poison so she may never leave her garden of poisonous plants. In the final story, “The House of the Seven Gables,” the Pyncheon family suffers from a hundred-year-old curse, and while in the midst of arguing over inheritance, the Pyncheon brother kills his sister.
Sebastian Cabot, Brett Halsey, Beverly Garland, Richard Denning, and Joyce Taylor co-star.
Kino Lorber Studio Classics announced on their Facebook page that this Halloween they’ll be telling Twice Told Tales in the form of a remastered DVD and Blu-ray release. No specific release dates or extras just yet so stay tuned.
