I didn’t see a thread for this show yet. Sometimes Federation is iffy though. If there is already a post, I guess just delete this one.

The Fall of the House of Usher is the new Mike Flanagan horror miniseries on Netflix, here just on time for Halloween spooky stuff.

I just finished the show tonight and thought it was pretty good overall. Decent production (with the exception of digital green screen backgrounds everywhere), a solid ensemble cast, some surprisingly good monologues, some creepy scares, and a good enough ending. I went in not knowing anything about it except for its genre and was pleasantly surprised.

Edit: also Mark Hamill doing a voice for his role was a treat

What did you think?

    I haven’t watched all of it yet. Wanting a slow burn so only watching one episode a night. That said, I have to say the lead up and execution of the orgy scene was fantastic. Not since the scene in one of the Cube movies, where the prisoner is dying of thirst, goes into a cube and “water” starts raining down on him (and then melts him), has this idea been done so well. Gruesome, grim, and wonderfully gory.
