Flanagan's stuff is great, though my favorite is The Haunting of Hill House.

Did anyone watch Fall of the House of Usher?

I did. The game of counting down all the horrible Poe retelling deaths in the family was fun, even if the framing sequence monologues were a bit boring. And Carla Gugino was amazing!

And Carla Gugino was amazing!

This was what pushed me over the edge to loving it. It was like a showcase for her acting and so good- and she was a stand-out on Spin City! I find the monologues less boring as a theatre person, I thinlk. It helps me get over the squelching horror noises that are not for me...

If you love Carla Gugino, definitely watch The Haunting of Hill House.

I will definitely do that! I think I had it in the "Horror Is Not For Me" place, because my way into Buffy and even Twin Peaks was my love of the soap opera.

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

Just watched the first episode of Guy Ritchie’s The Gentleman on Netflix.

I mean, it’s nothing spectacular, but this kind of shit is exactly the sort of thing that I sign up for streaming services for in the first place. Why isn’t there more stuff like this, and why the hell is Netflix doing such a piss-poor job of promoting it?

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I avoided Fall of the House of Usher for so long based on the creepy banner pic, but once I gave in and actually watched it, I really enjoyed the heck out of it! Especially waiting to see how certain Poe stories would play out in the narrative.

I’m enjoying The Dead Boy Detective Agency on Netflix. I’m about six episodes in.
