I’m not super familiar with Poe but this was a fun watch. The animation was wonderful. A good spooky relax.
Animated Poe, / five styles; interstitial / tale, though... nevermore.
The animation on this was very unique and it is so cool goes along perfectly with these tales.
The narration, the music, the animation, and, of course, the stories - this is an exquisite movie. None of us who enjoy horror movies will be frightened watching these animated stories. However, this is a collection of artworks with amazing voice contributions which come together for excellent October viewing. 2023Oct22Sun
