Regarded as the "First Great American Horror Film" and inspired by the writings of Edgar Allan Poe, this harrowing tale from director D.W. Griffith centers on a young man (Henry B. Walthall) driven to madness by his own murderous actions. In addition to the groundbreaking feature-length film, this collection also boasts Griffith's 1909 short film "Edgar Allan Poe," starring Herbert Yost as the legendary gothic author.
