The Premature Burial (1962), directed by Roger Corman, Kino Lorber remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including original theatrical stereo.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056368/
Video encoded in two-pass 12.0 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image.
Note : More Corman Poe adaptations, in this case, the only one not featuring Vincent Price, but although that sounds like it should instantly make it inferior, it really isn't, it's one of the better ones, with a creepy atmosphere, a solid story, and very strong performances. Ray Millard in the lead is particularly good, and the art direction, as usual by Daniel Haller, is also pretty great, if not all that different from the two previous Corman-Poe films.
Guy Carrell is a 19th century British aristocrat with an obsessive fear of being buried alive. He suffers from a condition which will occasionally cause catatonic states similar to death, as did his father, who Carrell is convinced was buried alive, since he remembers hearing screaming from his tomb after his burial. His sister, however, claims this never happened. When Emily finally convinces him to marry her in spite of his medical condition and his obsessive fears, he tries to avoid the fate he so fears by building a tomb with many fail-safes and mechanisms to avoid premature burial, but his obsession and occasional cataleptic episodes finally alienate his wife, who convinces him to first destroy the tomb he's built, and then finally to open his father's grave to prove that he was indeed dead when he was buried. However, this causes a shock so severe that Carrell faints and seems to die from it, possibly leading to his greatest fear being realized...
This is a pretty decent looking remaster as such, not entirely clean, and a bit red-tinted, but basically fine. The stereo track is also ok. Too bad about the lack of commentary or even subtitles.
Hot tip

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “ hevk gothic horror” for more phobias in foggy graveyards, “ hevk horror” for more horribleness in general, or “ hevk 60s” for more from the decade when Corman ruled the roost.
