A very influential movie in its time, mainly for its imaginative cinematography and cutting.
The story itself is hard to follow, but not very important since the movie has more essence than substance.
The opening scene of the peasants cringing hearing that someone wants to visit the Ushers is later reused many times (i.e., in Dracula).
