From the Paper:

"As any well-bred and well-read horror film enthusiast can attest to, there have been at least sixteen cinematic versions of "The Black Cat." Of this number, a few have adhered to the true essence of Poe's tale, while the majority, as noted by Chris Steinbrunner and Otto Penzler in their Encyclopedia of Mystery and Detection, "have almost always been expanded and altered, at times beyond recognition.""
