Product Description

A terrifying journey through the mind of terror master Edgar Allan Poe, this horrifying tale pits two spirits - one good, one evil - to battle over the soul of a young girl. As a child, Lenore was haunted by visions of terror and read only the poems and stories of Poe. Now, as the lead singer in an L.A. band, Lenore is victimized by a supernatural killer who murders her friends and colleagues before he turns his evil sights on her. The ghost of Poe visits Lenore in her dreams and offers her a way to escape from the killer. Victims are taken to the bloody mountaintop lair of The Raven, where it transforms into a ghostly, unstoppable killer that Lenore must murder a second time.

1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING - Not Even Close To Edgar Allen Poe, May 24, 2008

By	Telecom Pete (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews

Thinking that this might be a modern retelling of Edgar Allen Poe's classic tale "The Raven", and seeing two very positive reviews, I almost bought this DVD (For 1.99 used at Hollywood Video - not 23.99 new at Amazon).

Fortunately, I decided to also check the title on the Internet Movie Database where it had "User Rating: 1.4/10 (252 votes)." When Amazon shows "More Buying Choices 72 used & new from $0.63" under the "Add to Shopping Cart" button, I knew this DVD must be a real turkey.

Also, the product description has "DVD Release Date: February 6, 2007" but the two positive reviews were written on April 8, 2006 and January 3, 2007 so these reviews could not have been for this DVD.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ulli Lommel's The Raven, January 29, 2009

By	Joseph P. Ulibas "Captain Couth" (Sacramento, CA, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Ulli Lommel's The Raven is about a girl who has psychic link to a serial killer. She longs for the days when her grandfather (Ulli Lommel) used to read her ghost stories and her favorite was The Raven. She looks at Ravens as an omen of pending doom and one of awe. But this gory and tragic tale as all too much like an Edgar Allen Poe
story; dark, gloomy and tragic. A low budget DTV film that's quite interesting, it's for Ulli Lommel fans and those who like to see something different.

1.0 out of 5 stars Most terrible piece of garbage ever made!!!, July 31, 2007

By	Christopher F. Williams - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Being an Edgar Allen Poe fan I rented this trash because the title is Edgar Allen Poe's, The Raven. The movie starts with a girl, named Lenoore, killing her rapist by throwing a blow dryer in the tub with him. The rest of the movie is everyone who seems to be associated with the girl including her dentist being stalked and killed by this guy who has evidently resurrected for some unexplained reason. Sound like Edgar Allen Poe to you? Let's move on from the plot to everything else. Terrible acting, lighting, and sound. No entertainment value whatsoever. Not even so bad it's good or funny. Just bad. I rented it but wanted to burn it just in case some other poor sucker made the same mistake.
