The Tomb of Ligeia- is anethor Roger Corman, Vincent Price and Edgar Allan Poe Collab.

The plot: Verden Fell (Vincent Price) is shattered after the death of his lovely wife. But, after an unexpected encounter with Lady Rowena Trevanion (Elizabeth Shepherd), Fell soon finds himself married again. Nevertheless, his late wife's spirit seems to hang over the dilapidated abbey that Fell shares with his new bride. Lady Rowena senses that something is amiss and, when she investigates, makes a horrifying discovery -- learning that Fell's dead wife is closer than she ever imagined possible.

Corman later gave Martin Scorsese permission to use a clip from the film in Mean Streets.

Roger Corman later said he thought the film was "one of the best Poe pictures and Vincent's performance in the film was very good. It was simply a matter of age."

Its a really good movie.

I really hoped it would be better
Tier 1 vintage disaster films Towering Inferno and The Poseidon Adventure. Tier 2 the Airport franchise. This would be tier 3 for sure. B movie producer legend Roger Corman financed this very low budget looking disaster flick starring Rock Hudson and Mia Farrow.

SFX were bad including Styrofoam made to look like big rocks of snow and huge fake snow flakes. Acting wasn't bad, but was left wanting more peril and even B movie goodness.

Oh well.
