THE RAVEN
"A fictionalized account of the last days of Edgar Allan Poe's life, in which the poet pursues a serial killer whose murders mirror those in the writer's stories." (IMDB)
I am ecstatic about this movie. I love John Cusack as Edgar Allen Poe, because honestly he is how I imagine Poe. There is the usual maudlin idea of him, but I can't believe anyone can be that depressed and creative without an overwhelming amount of passion, which I think Cusack will bring. Also the opportunity to see many of his stories brought to life is just awesome! It's slated for a February 2012 release, and I'll be there.
