The Tell-Tale Heart (1960)

5.9 | Dec 14, 1960 (GB) | Horror, Thriller | 01:18

From the Terrifying Pages of Edgar Allan Poe!

Themes of voyeurism and unrequited love compliment Poe's classic of murder and insanity in this superbly suspenseful loose interpretation. Anxiety-stricken librarian Edgar Marsh becomes infatuated with his next-door neighbor, but when he can't have her, he resorts to murder.
