When I think of a badass murder-mystery solver, my first thought goes to famed horror writer Edgar Allen Poe. Doesn’t yours? It doesn’t? Well, looks like someone else had the same idea as me and made a movie out of it. The Raven stars Luke Evans, Alice Eve, and John Cusack as Mr. Poe himself, and it flaps into theaters on March 9, 2012.

I can’t wait to see John Cusack as Edgar Allen Poe in “The Raven”. There was alot of interest back when John was working on the film and when he first mentioned it. This is going to be an excellent murder-mystery and I do believe one of his biggest hits! I’m thinking “cult” following to a point that might even surprise Mr. Cusack!
