I mostly remember Poe ... and I think there was a Brit horror flik with Vincent Price that didn't stick very closely to the Poe story. As slowly revealed, Poe was a real polymath who delved into all sorts of subjects including sci/tech and astronomy. The ghoulish stories were just a profitable sideline. To this day nobody knows what killed him. The theory he was a major addict was the invention of a hated rival news reporter.
