Rave Reviews for The Raven!
The Raven is the latest
project from Australian native James McTeigue, director of the kick ass 2005
hit V for Vendetta. McTeigue is back with his fourth directorial venture The Raven, which hit theatres on April 27 2012, was a frightening thrill for
movie goers. The film centers around murders committed based on the macabre
tales of Edgar Allen Poe (played by John Cusack).
Poe is recruited by the
local authorities to help solve the mystery of who is committing these heinous
crimes. The film takes an analytical approach and delves deep into the mind of
a distraught Poe during his final days. He is further compelled to help the
detective because the killer has kidnapped his intended bride. Time is running
out for Poe and his love and it is thrilling to see what happens as Poe and the
detective try and outwit the murderous mind of a killer Poe inspired.
