The Raven is a 1963 American motion picture produced and directed by Roger Corman. It was written by Richard Matheson very loosely based on the poem, "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe. It stars Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, and Boris Karloff as a trio of rival sorcerers. A young Jack Nicholson plays a small role. The movie was part of series of Poe adaptions produced by Corman through American International Pictures. Nominally in the horror genre, it is more appropriately classified as a B movie horror-comedy. The movie is frequently confused with the 1935 film The Raven, which also featured Karloff.
