Synopsis

Spoiler shield

A man's sanity is a point of contention as he confesses to murdering an elderly man, driven by the victim's pale blue 'vulture eye', culminating in guilt-induced auditory hallucinations of the victim's beating heart. A stark black-and-white adaptation of Edgar Allen Poe’s story by a veteran animator long associated with Disney.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
