Mystery writer Edgar Allan Poe and B-movie mogul Roger Corman are a potent double threat for Halloween. But you don’t have to tell that to the programmers at Anthology Film Archives.

Wednesday through Nov. 8, the East Village movie house will unspool seven Corman movies based on Poe’s macabre tales (all but one with Vincent Price) as well as a selection of other Corman flicks.

The proceedings open Wednesday with two Price-starrers, “House of Usher” (1960) — the first of Corman’s Poe cycle and one of his most faithful adaptations — and “The Pit and the Pendulum” (1961), with Price in two roles.

Other entries include “Tales of Terror” (1962), which teams Price with Peter Lorre and Basil Rathbone; “The Raven” (1963), in which Price and Lorre are joined by Boris Karloff and a then unknown Jack Nicholson; and “The Tomb of Ligeia” (1964), with Price and Elizabeth Shepherd and written by Robert Towne, who went on to pen “Chinatown” for Roman Polanski.

The non-Poe Corman films at Anthology will include “The Little Shop of Horrors” (1960), which was shot in two days on a nothing budget, and “X: The Man With the X-Ray Eyes” (1963), with Ray Milland as a mad scientist and — would you believe? — Don Rickles as the manager of a freak show.

Let’s not forget “The St. Valentine’s Day Massacre” (1967), one of the few flicks Corman directed for a major studio (Fox). Jason Robards, George Segal and Ralph Meeker headline.

The Anthology is at Second Avenue and Second Street; 212-505-5181.
