OT - Tomb of Ligeia on Tomorrow Night (Late)
« on: May 01, 2002, 04:21:57 AM »
Thought I'd post this now in case I don't get to a computer tomorrow evening ...

In light of recent discussions about Edgar Allen Poe and the several movies inspired by his stories, I wanted to call attention to "The Tomb of Ligeia" airing on AMC on Wednesday night ... make that Thursday morning, to be more precise.  Central time, it's at 1 a.m.

Darren recently informed us that two of these movies, "The Haunted Palace" and "The Tomb of Ligeia" inspired aspects of DS.

I just viewed "Haunted Palace," and Darren is right.  I didn't care for this movie as much as "The Pit and the Pendulum," nor as much as "Night of Dark Shadows," which it seems to have a major influence on.

However, I'm excited about seeing "The Tomb of Ligeia" tomorrow night ... according to Darren it inspired the Angelique/Alexis storyline in 1970 (?) Parallel Time.
