Spirits of the Dead

Spirits Of The Dead is a provocative anthology of three separate stories by Edgar Allan Poe. Metzengerstein (Roger Vadim, director) stars Jane Fonda as a capriciously cruel countess who is visited by a hot-blooded black stallion that she believes is the spirit of her dead cousin (Peter Fonda). William Wilson (Louis Malle, director) is a sadistic young man (Delon) who struggles for a sense of identity as he battles a look-alike who checkmates his every cruel move. The final tale is Toby Dammit (Federico Fellini, director), where Terence Stamp plays a down-and-out drunken actor who cannot escape the image of a ghostly child.
