For the last of his cycle of Edgar Allan Poe adaptations, Roger Corman asked screenwriter Robert Towne to turn Poe's story ''Ligeia'' into another vehicle for Vincent Price, who once again plays a man so haunted by his past that he is unable to function in the present. In this case the past comes in the form of his now-deceased first wife Ligeia, who casts a long shadow over an ill-advised second marriage to a woman who resembles her (Elizabeth Shepherd), particularly when he becomes convinced that Ligeia's spirit is returning to him in the form of a black cat. But is this actually a delusion on his part? (Arrow Films)

A macabre love story about a threesome for two, which, like most of Corman's adaptations of Poe's stories, could do with some editing.
