What makes this the best version on youtube ironically theirs no animation the still Grimm faces of predator & prey. triumphant & the doomed is absolutely absorbed by u & i the viewer. It also teached a very real lesson not only can evil win but it can incredibly & totally win. Let that sink in & be deeply contemplated in secret. MORBIDLY DELICIOUS

I haven't seen this in years. The illustrations towards the end are pretty terrifying.

The best dramatization of that great story I've ever seen.

I'm so glad I found this! We watched this in 8th grade English, but the VHS was so crappy and the tracking on the television was probably way off. So a room full of 13 year olds couldn't understand anything they were saying except someone yelling "AMONTILLADO" every so often. The substitute got frustrated that no one could answer any questions that he made us watch the whole video over again. I crack up every time I think about it.

Do they show this to 13 year olds? That must be traumatising!

8th grade english was a godsend. It introduced me to poe

Everything about this is perfect. It's the most ideal representation of Poe's work

I've been looking for this version for a long time. I showed my classes this one years ago. It was so long ago it was on VHS.

I watched this about a week ago, and I can't stop thinking about it. I really like the performance, I couldn't tell it was just one guy at first.

In my class- it would have been about 1999, we watched this on a filmstrip projector. It may have been this version. The audiotape would beep and then someone would manually turn the film to the next picture. This may have been it, but I've been trying to find that version forever.
