The Fall of the House of Usher
Thurs., Oct. 12

The Fall of the House of Usher

What: Miniseries
Where: Netflix
Genre: Horror
Why you should watch: At this point, Mike Flanagan has created a cottage industry out of adapting horror literature into Netflix content. From Haunting of Hill House (2018) to Gerald’s Game (2017) to The Midnight Club (2022), Flanagan has effectively translated (and sometimes distorted) the breadth and scope of these well-loved novels to the miniseries format. If you enjoy a good jump scare (and can tolerate long dialogue scenes), Flanagan’s Haunting anthology series is a Gothic literature guilty pleasure, and his upcoming adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” promises to be much the same.
