THE RAVEN (1915)Stars Henry B. Walthal. An early film on Poe. Told as a biography with vision/dream sequence that creates The Raven and a bit of Lenore. Based on a play made at the time on the life of Edgar Allan Poe. Strange and mesmerizing film, made when Poe was only a generation gone.

THE AVENGING CONSCIENCE (1914)Stars Henry B. Walthall, Spottiswoode Aitken, Blanche Sweet, George Siegmann and Ralph Lewis. Liberally adapted from the works of Edgar Allan Poe, this D.W. Griffith film features some of the most nightmarish insane-dream sequences. A young man is driven to the edge of reason when his uncle forbids his love for a young woman. Murder and madness is the mix (after all, it is Poe influenced!).
