This film certainly gave eternal rest to “the good and the bad and the worst and the best” parts of Poe and his brilliant madness, but it also somewhat spoke to the quality of certain elements of the movie as well which is why CrypticRock gives Edgar Allan Poe’s Lighthouse Keeper 3 out of 5 stars. Always Keep A Light Burning A young man wakes up on a remote beach. A young man awakens alone on a remote beach, marooned there by a violent storm. To have his story illustrated through the eyes of Cooper gave life to what was once believed to be just a rumor and viewers were able to make that descent into darkness and insanity which took hold of, and ultimately overpowered, the respected Edgar Allan Poe. He wakes up with amnesia in a lighthouse and the keeper Walsh explains that they are isolated in a remote peninsula where nobody can leave.
While climbing a cliff, he falls and faints. So, did Poe know what was happening to him? Did he understand that he was sick? One can be sure the fact that he was an alcoholic surely had some bearing on his diminished health as well. A castaway awakes on a beach with wounded forehead and sees a woman leaving the place. Interestingly enough, this story was thought to be symbolic of Poe’s own mental and physical decline and with this story being the last piece he worked on before passing away on October 7, 1849, it can easily be inferred that he had already been afflicted with the disease at the time he was writing this, especially considering rabies can have an incubation time of up to two years. Above the rocky crags, a lighthouse stands. Poe worked on The Light-House from May to August in 1849, the year of his death, which has since been confirmed to be due to an animal bite/scratch that resulted in the famed Master of the Macabre contracting rabies which then went untreated and caused his death.
