Director Brent Fidler details the remarkable experiences that shaped Edgar Allan Poe's rich imagination with this biographical drama that uses the legendary author and poet's deathbed dreams as a springboard to exploring his remarkable life. Born into theater and raised in England, Poe would later make his home on the docks of Richmond. It was there that the author produced his true classics - some of the best-known works in literary history. As Poe lies in his hospital bed edging ever closer to the unknown, the past intermingles with the present to highlight how one author managed to transform his inner torment into words that would reverberate down through the generations, profoundly affecting the lives of anyone who dared enter his macabre world. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Dom DeLuise's son Michael holds the directorial reins in the direct-to-video Almost Pregnant. Onetime "Charlie's Angel" Tanya Roberts plays a woman who'll do anything to become pregnant. Since her hubby Jeff Conaway can't deliver the goods, she decides to rely upon a surrogate. Her first new partner turns out to have had a vasectomy-and this is only the beginning. The director's dad makes an amusing appearance in this strident but undeniably funny bedroom farce. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A remake of Roger Corman's 1964 adaptation of the Edgar Allan Poe tale was produced by Corman but directed by Larry Brand. Its the story of a medieval prince (Adrian Paul) and his attempt to avoid a vicious plague among the populace. ~ John Bush, Rovi
