That's a lion, not a raven. Nice try, Corman.

"I'm Leslie Stahl. I'm Mike Wallace. I'm_" *gunshot*

This is a PRIDE COFFIN, BITCHES

Of course, I'd happily listen to Vincent Price read the phone book, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

...You cannot tell me this isn't a Muppet Show bit.

"I brought you your goblet of warm milk, father"

Thank you. And the silver platter of Oreo cookies?

...Oh it's a FUNNY adaptation :/

"You are under an enchantment!"

Yeah, it's called a Corman contract.

This bird's got quite a grocery list.

So he goes into the basement, I can only assume we'll be meeting Death of Rats next. SQUEAK.

...Rabbit's LOG?

Bunny lumberjack maybe? ...Bunberjack.

Yeah, probably don't wanna mention the box of eyeballs to the Raven. Save that for lunchtime.

VINCE

VINCE, STOP

VINCE THAT WHISK SUCKS

VINCE THE POT IS ABOMINABLE

VINCE I'M SENDING YOU A LINK TO THE OXO STORE

OH GOD IT'S PETER LORRE

"Go get some more!"

"Where?"

Walmart, duh.

I think Pete had more dignity when he was being pantsed by Bugs Bunny.

Roger Corman: Naturally an adaptation of one of the most popular gothic poems of all time must concern itself primarily with the politics of half-rate wizards.

This dialogue flows as gracefully as boulders down a mountainside >_>

Close the box, boys, gotta keep her fresh.

"Sleeves are a little long"

They'll ride up with wear.

How bad's the movie? Well, it's no Invasion of the Star Creatures, put it that way.

Hit him with the ol' Vincebeam.

Well, they've got a full party now.

"What about mother? She wants you home!"

"Why"

"I don't know-"

Neither do I, man. Neither do I.

I wish they'd stop trying to be funny. It's just kind of embarrassing.

And now, for your entertainment and enlightenment, twenty full minutes of Jack Nicholson freaking out.

Mm, lime jello castle.

@CactuarJoe Fortunately it has one of those beepers like my refrigerator if you leave it open too long.
