You gotta hand it to them, they're usually not the most friendly kind of people. In 'Race With The Devil' Peter Fonda and his friends run into more than a whole bunch of them. The only thing for them left to do, is get in their vehicle and drive... Racing away right up until the terrifying climax.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.cultreviews.com/shock-endings/race-with-the-devil/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>The Pit And The Pendulum</title><link>http://www.cultreviews.com/shock-endings/the-pit-and-the-pendulum/</link> <comments>http://www.cultreviews.com/shock-endings/the-pit-and-the-pendulum/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 03 Feb 2009 17:10:04 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Vomitron</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Shock Endings]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Castle]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Gothic]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.cultreviews.com/?p=1905</guid> <description><![CDATA[THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM from 1961 does probably not contain the first shock ending ever to be realized, but it sure is one to remember. So far, this film is one of my favorite Corman/Poe/Price collaborations. Roger Corman and writer Richard Matheson took the liberty of mixing elements from different Edgar Allan Poe stories together, and the end result is one tense little gothic shocker. The whole plot is woven around the mystery surrounding the death of Nicholas Medina's (Vincent Price) wife Elizabeth (played by the ravishing Barbara Steele). Elizabeth's brother, Francis (John Kerr) travels to Medina's castle to learn more about her death.]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.cultreviews.com/shock-endings/the-pit-and-the-pendulum/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> <enclosure url="http://www.cultreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/pit-pendulum.mp3" length="661142" type="audio/mpeg" /> </item> <item><title>Rumpelstiltskin</title><link>http://www.cultreviews.com/shock-endings/rumpelstiltskin/</link> <comments>http://www.cultreviews.com/shock-endings/rumpelstiltskin/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 03 Feb 2009 16:26:17 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Vomitron</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Shock Endings]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Fairy Tale]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.cultreviews.com/?p=1879</guid> <description><![CDATA[Director: Mark Jones Writer: Joe Ruby &#038; Mark Jones Release Year: 1996 RUMPELSTILTSKIN unites the talents of LEPRECHAUN director Mark Jones ("Huh?
