And it's fun, as Vincent Price and Boris Karloff do battle in a match straight out of Marvel Comics' "Doctor Strange. " But it's sure as heck not Poe. "It's camp," says John Astin, not as a compliment. "The Masque of the Red Death" (Roger Corman, 1964): Give Corman credit -- he never stopped trying to do right by Poe.
