Synopsis:

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.

Inspired by the gothic poem by Edgar Allen Poe and starring horror legends Vincent Price, Peter Lorre and Boris Karloff (with Jack Nicholson in an early screen role), this Roger Corman classic about two wizards duelling for magical supremacy is utterly bewitching!

A magician who has been turned into a raven turns to a former sorcerer for help in this film loosely based on the Edgar Allen Poe poem.
