Madaleine (Fahey), l'ultima degli Usher, nobile famiglia oppressa da un'antica maledizione, è incline alla crisi cardiaca e alla catalessi. Suo fratello Roderick (Price) la seppellisce ancora viva in una cripta. Tratto da un celebre racconto (1839) di Edgar Allan Poe, è il 1° film della serie Poe di Corman e segna l'inizio della sua collaborazione con Price e lo sceneggiatore Richard Matheson che, dovendo lavorare soltanto su 4 personaggi (alla AIP di Corman il basso costo era legge), inventò diverse scene di riempitivo per creare l'atmosfera. Al di là delle sue qualità figurative (i filtri colorati di Floyd Crosby, le scene di Daniel Haller), il merito di Corman è di aver cercato l'orrore nella psicologia dei personaggi. Finale spettacolare e un superbo Price.

In a decaying castle surrounded by a dank, mirrored lake live the morbidly nervous Roderick Usher and his sickly twin sister, Madeline. Their tale is told and dimly comprehended by the unnamed narrator, a boyhood friend whom Roderick has summoned. When Madeline soon dies—or seems to die—they entomb her body. On a stormy night, "cracking and ripping" sounds and a "shriek" from below convince the panicky Roderick that "We have put her living into the tomb!" The shrouded, emaciated figure of Madeline appears at the door of Roderick's book-strewn study, falls upon him, "and in her violent and now final death-agonies, bore him to the floor a corpse."
