It's an okay review but its scatterbrained. First you describe the size of your boner for Vincent Price. And then you write a sparknotes for the book that the movie is based off of. Finally you write a review that is sometimes funny but its short.

Finally you write a review that is sometimes funny but its short. You have the criticism part downpat, but what about the 'constructive'? I like critiques but can you throw me a bone on how I should have approached reviewing a book-to-movie, and justifying what made it remotely tolerable (ie Vincent Price)?

The title EDGAR ALLEN POE'S The Haunted Palace made me think that the guest reviewer wrote about the wrong author of this special. Thank you for a good review. I will have to find a copy of this movie someday.

And here is something to put you into a lovecraft frame of mind. http://www.nightmaresforsale.com/aklo/? ... 2godQxny6gKen's a busy guy these days, so it will probably be a little while. He is currently writing a Dead Space 2 review, though it's not the H.P. Lovecraft review you want, but it will hold you over, as will GameJams Episode 11 when it comes out shortly.
