The Fall of Usher

They tried to do Old English narration in a modern world. It was boring and looked cheap. Felt like college project. Acting was ok. It wasn't terrible, but needs improvement.probably don't watch it. Cuz will be waste of time.

This mimics the style of Poes tales so it's a psychological horror movie presented by an unreliable narrator. I'm not a fan of the typical slasher horror genre. This movie is not so easily classified. The set is confined to one house and is narrated by someone who seems to be on the brink of insanity. This movie held my attention and I found the focus on the main character dealing with extreme stress intriguing. It does have graphic violence but not to the excess of many horror movies. It's not for children and no typical slutty sex of some horror genres. It explores relationships so it's more for adults who appreciate such. I think it's worth watching.

The Fall of Usher (2021) is a movie that I recently watched on Prime. The storyline follows a young man taking care of his father with no other real purpose. He begins seeing strange things around his house and can't tell if they're real or his imagination; or simply, they are his demise and he's just here to tell you how and why...

This movie is written and directed by Brian Cunningham (Overtime) and stars Spencer Korcz (Wretch), Michael R Mcguire, James Tackett (United We Fall), Savannah Schafer (Beasts of the Field) and Riker Hill (Tears in the Snow).

Everything about the main character is annoying - his look, voice, narrations, mannerisms, your okay with pretty much anything that happens to him in the movie. The storyline is nothing special and the cinematography for a modern film was disappointing, even if there were a couple good scenes with how they used lighting. The background sound effects and corpses were good, but the horror elements were lacking and nothing special.

Overall, this was nothing special and not worth your time. I would score this a 2.5/10 and recommend skipping it.

I'll agree with others that the start of the story was slow, but one you make it through the first 20 minutes, you find yourself wondering how all the bits are going to tie together and what's going to happen next. It's anybodies guess and the macabre of Poe, is really evident. The music show is fantastic and the acting and direction was well done when considering this is isn't a multi million dollar blockbuster budget. It was low budget and should be compared as such. It reminds me of when movies were made for the passion of art of the story, not as an investment opportunity. Definitely worth a watch.

Who in their right mind would a modern day The Fall of Usher without reading the short story by Edgar Allan Poe. I watched the trailer thinking that is was a period piece boy was I wrong. It looked boring and there was something off about the movie that turned me off.

Quite frankly. The 1960's version of House of Usher is better than this version and this because of the great Vincent Price makes the movie really creepy and you have to have Roger Corman do the direction.

How about no more adaptions of Edgar Allan Poe's The Fall House of Usher. One is enough and that is about it.

Its up to you if you want to watch it.
