If you're looking for inbred townsfolk, you can't beat Lon Chaney, Jr., Elisha Cook, and Leo Gordon. Yog Shuggoth! - @Thursday, September 11, 2014 7:44 PM

" it's actually a slight digression in that it's not based on Poe at all but on an H.P. Lovecraft .... " - hmmm? Lovecraft is every bit as respected as Poe. - @Monday, May 5, 2014 7:42 PM
