rottenartist<p>My slightly more in-depth review of Flanagan's "The Fall of the House of Usher" series (minor spoilers): </p><p>For me, the series nailed the dedication to Poe's most popular works. As a love-letter to Poe's writings, it's great. It's not a direct adaptation by any means, but it is a very fun romp through Poe's better known works. It even achieves some depth in a few parts.</p><p>But it stumbles in the other intended themes/messages especially at the end. 🧵 <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/TheFalloftheHouseofUsher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFalloftheHouseofUsher</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/EdgarAllanPoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EdgarAllanPoe</span></a></p>
rottenartist<p>I finished Flannigan's The Fall of the House of Usher. A very quick take: </p><p>As a Poe-inspired horror series, it was entertainingly violent and gory. It mostly did good at going beyond easy references to pull at least some depth from the stories/poems. </p><p>As a series dealing with opioid crisis and the evils of capitalism, it stumbles at the end. It goes preachy while ditching the art of metaphor and symbols.</p><p>Enjoyable overall. <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/TheFalloftheHouseofUsher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFalloftheHouseofUsher</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/EdgarAllanPoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EdgarAllanPoe</span></a></p>
rottenartist<p>Three Poe stories referenced in the bar windows in episode 1 of The Fall of the House of Usher:<br>1. The Raven<br>2. Metzengerstein<br>3. The Black Cat (there are two felines in that story, hence, two windows) <br>🧵<br><a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/EdgarAllanPoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EdgarAllanPoe</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/TheFallOfTheHouseOfUsher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFallOfTheHouseOfUsher</span></a></p>
rottenartist<p>Tamerlane's breakdown in ep. 6 of <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/TheFalloftheHouseofUsher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFalloftheHouseofUsher</span></a> is referencing Poe's story William Wilson (the name of her husband character in the show). In the original WW story, the main character has a double or doppelgänger who slowly destroys his life over years. </p><p>Though, in the end, there may have been no double, but a representation of his own self-destructive spirit. Self destruction is a theme in many of Poe's works. <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/EdgarAllanPoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EdgarAllanPoe</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/williamwilson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>williamwilson</span></a></p>
rottenartist<p>In ep 6 of The Fall of the House of Usher, Lenore watches the end of a black and white movie that appears to be an adaptation of The Pit and Pendulum, but I can't find which movie that is. I just keep coming up with the 1961 Vincent Price adaptation.</p><p>Anyone know which movie that was in the show?</p><p><a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/TheFalloftheHouseofUsher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFalloftheHouseofUsher</span></a></p>
rottenartist<p>WHAAAT? The Koch Brothers? Mark Zuckerberg? Mitch McConnell? Trump? WTFFF? Is she the spirit of evil capitalism?

rottenartist<p>Weird sideways reference to H.P. Lovecraft in <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/TheFalloftheHouseofUsher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFalloftheHouseofUsher</span></a> with the statement "out of time and out of space" in Ep. 6 "The Gold Bug". Lovecraft considered Poe a towering literary figure whose work influenced all of his writing, but that was in the 1900's. </p><p>Though, Pym is taking a center role in this episode and that story was a particular influence on Lovecraft. <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/EdgarAllanPoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EdgarAllanPoe</span></a> <a href="https://social.horrorhub.club/tags/hplovecraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hplovecraft</span></a></p>
