Mike Flanagan's macabre new horror series arrives on Netflix in one month.
The Big Picture Spooky season is never complete without something from horror auteur Mike Flanagan. The creator has delivered one terrifying and delightful series after another ahead of Halloween, from 2018's The Haunting of Hill House to 2022's The Midnight Club. Now, there's only a month left until the curtain rises on his Edgar Allen Poe adaptation The Fall of the House of Usher and Netflix has released the official trailer to celebrate.
The trailer opens on a foreboding Roderick Usher , one of the two siblings who founded Fortunato Pharmaceuticals and built their unshakable empire of wealth and power, as he envisions the end of their family. The Usher family is a modern-day crime family not unlike the Sacklers who profit from the pain of others. Always able to escape legal consequences, they have the power to "neutralize" anyone who would threaten them and their piles of cash.
The woman from the Ushers' past begins showing up constantly, promising a reckoning for the family for all the skeletons in their closet. Even with the help of an investigator , there's no saving the family from the supernatural wrath brought upon them as bloody, ghostly figures haunt their lives and each is placed in grave danger.
'The Fall of the House of Usher' Boasts a Stacked Cast of Flanagan Regulars Flanagan projects are well known for the many recurring actors he typically taps to take part and Usher is no different. Plenty of repeat customers are mixed into the cast along with some welcome new additions like Hamill.
Directorial duties for the series will be split between Flanagan and Michael Fimognari who's been a regular cinematographer for the creator and previously helmed a pair of episodes for his ill-fated The Midnight Club. Both will direct four of the eight episodes. There's some extra significance to Usher as it could be the final of Flanagan's series to hit Netflix for some time with his and Trevor Macy's Intrepid Pictures deal coming to an end at the streamer.
