I don't know if Talking Pictures have the ABC episodes lined up but I finished my boxset viewing with the grisly version of The Fall of the House of Usher, which is not a bad effort, and the very dull Oliphant adaptation The Open Door. Rounding it off was a brief clip from Casting the Runes which is all that survives on video. It looks like it would have been one of the better episodes.
Overall, it's a very mixed bag of a series. I'm glad I got to see it but the only episode that I'm unreservedly keen on is Sweeney Todd.
