Loosely based on various works by 19th-century author Edgar Allan Poe (most prominently the eponymous 1840 short story), the series adapts otherwise unrelated stories and characters by Poe into a single nonlinear narrative set from 1953 to 2023. It recounts both the rise to power of Roderick Usher, the powerful CEO of a corrupt pharmaceutical company, and his sister Madeline Usher, the firm's genius COO, and the events leading to the deaths of all six of Roderick’s children. It stars an ensemble cast led by Carla Gugino as Verna, plaguing the Ushers, and Bruce Greenwood and Mary McDonnell as an elderly Roderick and Madeline.

The first two episodes of The Fall of the House of Usher premiered at Fantastic Fest in September 2023 before the Netflix release the following month, and the miniseries counted more than 13 million views in its first two weeks. It was met with positive reviews, with critics praising its production values, directing, and performances (in particular from Gugino, Greenwood, and Mark Hamill), although they were divided on its narrative, notably in relation to the source materials.

Synopsis

edit

In November 2023, Roderick Usher, the CEO of pharmaceutical company Fortunato Pharmaceuticals, loses all six of his children within two weeks. The evening after the final funeral, Roderick invites C. Auguste Dupin, an Assistant United States Attorney who dedicated his career to exposing Fortunato's corruption, to his childhood home, where he tells the true story of his family and unveils the Ushers' darkest secrets.

The series follows two timelines in addition to the conversation between Roderick and Dupin, depicted onscreen when told by Roderick: the first, taking place from 1953 to 1980, recounts Roderick and his twin sister Madeline's youth and subsequent rise to power, while the second follows all of the Ushers during the two weeks leading up to the discussion, revealing the truth behind the deaths of Roderick's children.

1"A Midnight Dreary"Mike FlanaganMike FlanaganOctober 12, 2023 (2023-10-12)
Roderick Usher, the corrupt CEO of Fortunato Pharmaceuticals, has lost all six of his children—heir Frederick, entrepreneur Tamerlane, surgeon Victorine, gaming mogul Napoleon (Leo), PR head Camille, and socialite Prospero (Perry)—in a span of two weeks. He attends the funeral of his oldest three (the last ones to die), accompanied by his sister and Fortunato COO Madeline, his wife Juno, his granddaughter and Frederick's teenage daughter Lenore, and his lawyer Arthur Pym. He sees the ghosts of his dead children and collapses, muttering, "It's time." He invites his nemesis, assistant US Attorney C. Auguste Dupin, to his childhood home to confess his crimes and reveal the reason behind his children's deaths. In 1962, Roderick and Madeline's mother, Eliza, was buried prematurely after appearing to have died of illness, and dug herself out of her grave to kill her abusive employer, Fortunato CEO William Longfellow, their biological father. In the present, a trial begins to hold the Usher family responsible for the deaths of thousands of people who were taking Fortunato's drug Ligodone and for causing the opioid epidemic. Dupin mentions an informant within the family. Roderick recounts a fateful encounter with a mysterious woman named Verna, who foretold a life-altering change for the siblings during New Year's Eve 1979.
2"The Masque of the Red Death"Mike FlanaganEmmy Grinwis and Mike FlanaganOctober 12, 2023 (2023-10-12)
In 1979, Dupin investigates grave exhumations linked to a drug trial. The younger Roderick, living with Madeline, his first wife Annabel Lee, and young children Frederick and Tamerlane, fails a pitch of Ligodone to Fortunato's CEO, Rufus Griswold, who succeeded Longfellow. In the present, Perry, Frederick, and Pym must deal with environmental concerns involving their properties. When Frederick insults Perry, Perry decides to host a masquerade-themed party at one of the condemned properties to prove his worth, using water from the facility's tanks to signal an orgy. Roderick, suffering from CADASIL, pins hope on Victorine's experimental heart mesh, while Madeline seeks to create AI using Lenore's memories. Perry invites Frederick's frustrated wife, Morella, to his party, planning to seduce her as revenge for his brother's disrespect to him. Verna arrives at the party in disguise and gives Perry an oblique warning about consequences. The sprinklers' spray turns out to be acid and chemical waste, the consequence being death for all but one guest, including Perry. Verna gives Perry a kiss as he dies.
3"Murder in the Rue Morgue"Michael FimognariJustina Ireland and Mike FlanaganOctober 12, 2023 (2023-10-12)
In a flashback, Griswold takes credit for Ligodone, forcing Roderick to accept this in exchange for potentially increasing his influence at Fortunato. In the present, Pym identifies Perry's body and a badly-burned Morella, the only survivor. Roderick confesses to Dupin that he hid the corrosive waste in those tanks to avoid federal regulations; Frederick's negligence in removing those properties resulted in Perry's death. Camille discovers that Victorine's illegal heart mesh tests on animals were unsuccessful. Verna poses as the first human test subject for Victorine, who books the illegal surgery without informing her girlfriend and co-worker Dr. Ali Ruiz. Verna also poses as an escort for Tamerlane's husband, Bill, to fulfill Tamerlane's cuckquean fetish. Leo believes he killed Pluto, the black cat of his partner Julius, in a drug-fueled stupor. Camille encounters Verna posing as a security guard at Victorine's lab, who asks why Camille hates her half-sister since the two are in fact similar. One of the tested chimpanzees mauls Camille to death.
4"The Black Cat"Michael FimognariMat Johnson and Mike FlanaganOctober 12, 2023 (2023-10-12)
In a flashback, Dupin shows Roderick documents with his signature, which Fortunato forged. In the present, Leo adopts a black cat resembling Pluto from Verna to deceive Julius. Camille's death triggers a family crisis as they no longer have a PR leader. Roderick, Madeline, and Pym identify Verna as the culprit, whom Madeline recalls meeting on New Year's of 1980. Pym gives Frederick the locked burner phone Perry gave to Morella for the party; Frederick becomes paranoid that Morella was cheating on him. In an attempt to cope, he asks Leo for drugs. Roderick confides in Madeline about his diagnosis, similar to their mother's. The new Pluto torments Leo amid Julius' concern over his excessive drug use due to grief over his siblings' deaths. Leo brings Verna to take back the cat and accidentally gouges Pluto's eye, with Verna showing the same injuries. He trashes the apartment in search of Pluto, all of it being his hallucinations. Leo then falls to his death from the balcony as the real Pluto reappears.
5"The Tell-Tale Heart"Mike FlanaganDani ParkerOctober 12, 2023 (2023-10-12)
Roderick, Madeline, and Annabel Lee join forces with Dupin to uncover Fortunato's hidden files. The surviving Usher children devolve into jealousy over their father's favoritism. Frederick has the hospital discharge Morella into his care. Victorine admits that she forged Ali's signature to hurry Verna's surgery. Dupin admits he lied about the informant's existence to pit the family against each other. After an argument, Tamerlane and Bill break up. Roderick meets Victorine for the heart mesh but she is distracted by a ticking noise. Her memory then comes back: after Ali said she was going to reveal the corruption behind the Usher family and the heart mesh trial, Victorine threw a bookend at her head, killing her. Desperate, she used the heart mesh on a dead Ali and was driven to madness by the mesh's chirping. Upon realizing this, Victorine commits suicide in front of her father.
6"Goldbug"Mike FlanaganRebecca Leigh Klingel and Mike FlanaganOctober 12, 2023 (2023-10-12)
In the present, Tamerlane deals with hallucinations from insomnia and her breakup with Bill as she prepares to launch her wellness package Goldbug. Madeline tries to convince Roderick that Verna is a threat after his children's mounting death count, trying to remind him of their deal with her back in 1980, though Roderick is in denial. She also pushes her scientists to develop an AI for consciousness mapping. Pym uncovers Verna's links to prominent families impossibly dating back hundreds of years. Morella begins speaking, leading Frederick to drug her back into silence, still believing she had been unfaithful. Lenore grows concerned when her father does not bring the specialists he'd promised for her mother. At Goldbug's launch, Tamerlane is rattled by hallucinations of Verna and a sex tape of her, Bill, and an escort. She accidentally injures Juno and Madeline spots Verna, who turns to dust before her eyes. At home, Verna taunts Tamerlane through mirrors, which she smashes until the shards of glass impale and kill her.
7"The Pit and the Pendulum"Michael FimognariJamie Flanagan and Mike FlanaganOctober 12, 2023 (2023-10-12)
Madeline tries to convince Pym to elect her as CEO after Roderick is pushed out due to his illness; she wishes to pivot Fortunato to a tech company focusing on artificial immortality. Frederick—now hooked on Leo's cocaine—continues to torture a helpless Morella. In 1979, Roderick betrays Dupin at the court hearing to take down Fortunato, saving the company and earning its gratitude. Shocked and disappointed, his wife Annabel Lee leaves him. In the present, Roderick refuses Juno's request to get off Ligodone, admitting he only married her because he was fascinated by her body's affinity for the drug; she leaves him too. Frederick enters the building where Perry died prior to it being bulldozed. He snorts cocaine and collapses; Verna reveals that she pushed him to add Morella's paralytics to the cocaine. As the demolition begins, she explains she would've used an easier method of death but chose this because of his decision to torture Morella. The collapsing infrastructure forms a pendulum that bisects Frederick; he can see and feel it happening. Lenore rescues her mother and calls the police. Madeline thinks she can save herself if Roderick dies and convinces him to overdose on Ligodone. Verna, however, does not allow him to die just yet.
8"The Raven"Michael FimognariMike Flanagan and Kiele SanchezOctober 12, 2023 (2023-10-12)
In 1979, Griswold makes Roderick his right-hand man after he saves the company at the court hearing. On New Year's Eve, Madeline and Roderick serve Griswold poisoned amontillado and wall him into the basement, murdering him. They plan to frame him and have Roderick replace him on the board, taking over Fortunato. The siblings spend time at Verna's bar to establish an alibi and are talked into making a deal with her for wealth and power; in exchange, the entire Usher bloodline will die right before the siblings do, who will die together. In the present, Verna offers Pym a deal of immunity for his crimes, but he refuses. Verna regrets having to kill the innocent Lenore and reveals that her mother will recover and form a beneficent foundation in her name before granting Lenore a peaceful death. Verna had then instructed Roderick to call Dupin to confess. Before doing so, Roderick had invited Madeline to the old house, where he killed her and replaced her eyes with sapphires to give her a queenly send-off. After Roderick finishes confessing, a blind and deranged Madeline emerges from the basement, revealed to have only appeared dead like their mother, and strangles Roderick, causing the house to collapse. Juno inherits and dissolves Fortunato, creating a drug rehab foundation. Pym is arrested and Dupin retires. Verna leaves a token on each Usher grave while reciting Poe's "Spirits of the Dead".

Production

edit

In October 2021, Netflix announced that Mike Flanagan was developing a new miniseries based on "The Fall of the House of Usher" and other works by Edgar Allan Poe.[6] On December 9, 2021, Frank Langella, Carla Gugino, Mary McDonnell, Carl Lumbly, and Mark Hamill were cast.[3] Samantha Sloyan, Rahul Kohli, Henry Thomas, T'Nia Miller, Kate Siegel, Sauriyan Sapkota, Zach Gilford, Katie Parker, Michael Trucco, Malcolm Goodwin, Crystal Balint, Kyleigh Curran, Paola Nuñez, Aya Furukawa, Matt Biedel, Daniel Jun, Ruth Codd, Robert Longstreet, Annabeth Gish, and Igby Rigney were cast the next day.[7][8]

In April 2022, Langella was fired from the series after a misconduct investigation, with his role set to be recast.[9] By the end of the month, Bruce Greenwood was cast to replace Langella.[10]

Filming began on January 31, 2022, in Vancouver, Canada, and wrapped on July 9, 2022.[11][12][13]

Release

edit

The first two episodes debuted at Fantastic Fest in September 2023,[14][15] as well as a pre-screening at Flanagan's alma mater, Towson University. The series was released on Netflix on October 12, 2023.[16]

Reception

edit

Viewership

edit

The Fall of the House of Usher was viewed 6 million times on its debut week, making it the most-watched English-language fiction program on Netflix that week, and third most-watched overall after the French-language series Lupin and the documentary series Beckham.[17] The next week, it was the second most-watched series on Netflix, with 7.9 million views.[18]

Critical response

edit

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 90% of 105 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.9/10. The website's consensus reads: "Presenting vintage Poe stories filtered through Mike Flanagan's deliciously dark lens, The Fall of the House of Usher will get a rise out of horror fans."[19] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the show a score of 73 out of 100, based on 33 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[20] Its cast, production values, directing and editing were singled out, with the performances of Carla Gugino, Bruce Greenwood, and Mark Hamill being singled out by a number of critics.[21][1][22][23]

Ben Travers of IndieWire gave the series a B− and wrote, "As the absurdly wealthy destroy our only planet, our innocent pleasures, and our very lives, even a blunt, overextended allegory can deliver visceral satisfactions. Arguing billionaires should not exist has rarely felt so Biblical."[24] Reviewing the series for San Francisco Chronicle, G. Allen Johnson gave a rating of 3/4 and said, "The tonal difference between the books and the series? The makers of The Fall of the House of Usher are having way more fun."[25]

Olly Dyche of MovieWeb stated: "The series oozes with [Flanagan]'s usual style of creepy imagery, effective jump scares, ample tension, and complex emotions. But perhaps what The Fall of the House of Usher does better than most horror series is its focus on character drama, and the deeply engaging mystery that will constantly ask more questions than it answers until the very end. The performances, as with Flanagan's usual projects, are all flawless, with Carla Gugino stealing the show."[23] Perri Nemiroff of Collider stated that The Fall of the House of Usher was "Another masterful series from Mike Flanagan", "A true dream for fans of Edgar Allan Poe's work" and "an expertly crafted combination of Poe-penned stories brought to screen via a slew of deliciously diabolical performances."[26] Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert.com stated that the series "can sometimes feel simultaneously overcrowded in its cramming in of various sources and narratively thin at the same time, but Mike Flanagan's craft and his assemblage of returning performers keep this pendulum swinging through eight grisly episodes."[22]

While other aspects were widely praised, the narrative received some criticism: Aja Romano of Vox found it to be unable to blend its various source materials smoothly, and to lack "the most central element of all Poe’s works: Passion. The characters of Usher may be dying like they're in a gothic horror, but they're not living like it [...] There’s nothing of Poe's lingering mysteries, the giant unresolved questions of internal motivations and dreamlike logic that hang over his stories and their subjects".[1] Ed Power of The Telegraph called it "an over-stuffed and under-cooked horror bore", stating that "the characters are too bluntly drawn to elicit any of the sympathy we felt for the tragically awful Roys. The opiate plot feels tacked on, if not opportunistic. Nor does it help that the story is gory rather than frightening."[21]
