Metzengerstein – Spirits of the Dead

Metzengerstein

A while back I posted images from Fellini’s Toby Dammit, his surreal entry in the Edgar Allan Poe anthology Spirits of the Dead. Here is Jane Fonda in Roger Vadim‘s Metzengerstein, dressing how I would if I were insane.

Spirits of the Dead – Toby Dammit

Toby Dammit Spirits of the Dead

This is the visually spectacular Toby Dammit, a short film by Federico Fellini which is part of Spirits of the Dead, an anthology of Edgar Allan Poe adaptations (the other two are by Louis Malle and Roger Vadim – those images coming soon). The original story is called Never Bet the Devil Your Head which, unlike the film ends, in dog meat.
