The well and the pendulum (aka The Pit and The Pendulum), uno dei migliori gotici degli anni '60 nonché della storia del cinema horror, vedrà la luce in DVD e in Blu-ray grazie a Pulp Video, a partire da oggi April 4.
Distributed by CG Entertainment, il film è una fedele citazione all'omonimo e celebre racconto di Edgar Allan Poe.
A dirigerlo è l'immenso Roger Corman, autore di altri capolavori come Buried alive, Tales of Terror, The wax virgin, The mask of the red death, The Tomb of Ligeia and many others. The cast boasts the presence of horror icons corresponding to the names Vincent Price (here in one of his finest and most unforgettable performances) and Barbara Steele.
