I’ve been writing about video games, television and movies for Forbes for over 10 years, and you may have seen my reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. I cover all manner of console and PC games, but if it’s about looting or shooting, I’m definitely there. If I’m watching something, it’s usually science fiction, horror or superheroic.
Netflix picked the perfect spooky month to debut Mike Flanagan’s The Fall of the House of Usher, his swan song as he moves on from projects like this, The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass to go work at Amazon. Probably to make a Dark Tower series.for well over a week, and now has only been unseated today by a new, different sort of mystery show, Bodies, which has come out of relative nowhere to debut at #2 and now make it to #1.
Neon is a new music-based show that has debuted at #5. The Great British Baking Show, Beckham and Pact of Silence are older list entries that are sliding down. At the tail end of the list we have “Surviving Paradise,” a reality show where players fight to move from the wilderness to a luxury villa as Netflix tries to make its own Survivor, I guess. The last show is “Creature,” a Turkish series about a monster that I assume is not Frankenstein.
Flanagan said that he would make the show five seasons of a TV show plus two movies, all of which would follow the other of the books. The first two episodes of Season 1 would be The Gunslinger, and the rest would be The Drawing of the Three. The show would then cover the first 7 books, culminating in The Wind Through the Keyhole being a film. It’s not clear what the other film would be.
