Was not quite sure where to post this but, since it uses an
Allan Parsons Project song, I guess this forum figures.
I was searching for short films based off my favourite Poe story (the one I get my forum name from), and I stumbled upon this. Despite stylistic differences with the original, I think it's very good. Enjoy!

Tales of Mystery and Imagination.....great release! And The Cask Of Amontillado was the best cut.

Woops, missed the Alan Parsons Project thread. But, I was wanting to drawn attention as much to the short film's animation and style as to the music.
Only two things bug me about the the link I sent (and this is more the fault of Allan Parsons than the film's creator) - one being the mispronunciation of amontillado; the other being the fact that the story happens at the height of winter in the film, but it's a summer carnival in Poe's original (hence Fortunato's jester costume). Nonetheless, two small points which don't really harm enjoyment.

No it's cool My fave song on the album is (The System of) Dr. Tarr/Prof. Fether but my fav short story has always been Cask.
