Castle Freak (1995) ​ Castle Freak is a 1995 American direct-to-video horror film directed by Stuart Gordon. The film stars Jeffrey Combs as John Reilly, an American recovering alcoholic who inherits an Italian castle when a distant relative passes away. John travels to Italy with his estranged wife Susan (Barbara Crampton) and blind daughter Rebecca (Jessica Dollarhide). The three plan to stay at the castle, but unbeknownst to them, a freakish monster locked away in the basement of the castle is about to escape and commit a series of murders. The police place John as the prime suspect, leading him to confront his alcoholism, fight the demon and prove himself innocent. Castle Freak went into production in 1994 after Gordon noticed art for the film in producer Charles Band's office. Gordon agreed to develop the film on Band's condition that the film take place in a castle, contain a freak, and would be shot on a very low budget. Gordon obliged as he would be able to cast who he wanted in the film and would get the final cut. The film was shot in 1994 in a castle owned by Band in Italy, where Gordon had previously shot The Pit and the Pendulum. Castle Freak (2020) Castle Freak is a 2020 American direct-to-video horror film that was directed by Tate Steinsiek. It has been billed as a reboot of the 1995 Stuart Gordon film by the same name, which is a loose adaptation of the stories "The Outsider" and "The Dunwich Horror" by H.P. Lovecraft.

The Black Cat (2007)

The Black Cat proves DVDs shouldn’t be judged by their cover - this time it’s for the better. I took one look and thought “well, this is going to suck”. How could I not after seeing that quill pen piercing an eyeball, with blood all over the place? I couldn’t imagine it having anything to do with the Edgar Allan Poe story, no matter what the packaging toted. I should’ve known to trust in director Stuart Gordon. This is an enjoyable little entry in the Masters of Horror series.

Alcoholic Edgar Allan Poe (Jeffrey Combs) is short on cash and desperate for money. Suffering from writer’s block as his wife’s tuberculosis worsens, he becomes unhinged when a black cat begins harassing him.

When I viewed Ghosts of Dickens’ Past a few months ago, I felt that it cheapened Charles Dickens' works by creating this fiction in which he didn’t invent A Christmas Carol and instead based it on real-life supernatural events that happened to him. I didn’t think I would ever see a fictional story in which a real author lives through an experience that ultimately "inspires" one of their works done well. Well, here we are. The key is the story and its already autobiographical feel. Poe saw several women he loved die, he did become an alcoholic, and I’m sure the pressure of being one of the first authors to earn a living through writing alone made him difficult, particularly when he scrambled to find inspiration. Obviously, Poe was fascinated with the ideas within this story (you see them again in The Telltale Heart). The film cleverly expands on the original story by inserting real-life events, some of which were indeed horrific.

The cast do well with the material, the way it interprets the familiar story makes it feel new. One thing that could be improved is the horror and the gore. There are some missed opportunities to make the story more frightening by pushing the idea of an unreliable narrator further. As for the gore, it's the opposite problem. There’s too much and the way it's handled clashes with the film's tone. You'd expect it to be ambiguous, or figments of the imagination but it's just there to be there. Too often, the film uses computer-generated blood in its violent scenes and they distract rather than frighten.

I suppose The Black Cat isn’t technically a movie, since it only clocks in at about an hour (and that’s with a long introduction). I didn’t know that when I purchased the DVD. I bet many others won’t either. This is not the definitive adaptation of the Edgar Allan Poe story but it's cleverly done. If you're a fan of the author’s work (either Jeffrey Combs or Edgar Allan Poe), it's worth checking out. On your shelf, only the spine will face you and you'll easily be able to ignore that awful cover. This film is a lot better than it looks. (On DVD, April 27, 2016)
