The Raven

In this tongue-in-cheek movie inspired by Poe's poem, Dr. Craven is the son of a great sorcerer (now dead) who was once himself quite skilled at that profession, but has since abandoned it. One evening, a cowardly fool of a magician named Bedlo comes to Craven for help - the evil Scarabus has turned him into a raven and he needs someone to change him back. He also tells the reluctant wizard that Craven's long-lost wife Lenore, whom he loved greatly and thought dead, is living with the despised Scarabus. ??Ken Yousten Awards: 1 winBudget: $200,000 (estimated)Roger CormanVincent Price, Peter Lorre, Boris Karloff1963-01-25 (United States)tt0057449
