The Fall of Usher

It is extremely rare that I will turn off a movie, no matter how bad it is. I like to at least see where it goes and I'm no quitter, but... I watched MAYBE twenty or thirty minutes of this snoozefest before I had to go to something else! The acting (if you want to call it that) is dry and emotionless. The story (what there is of it) is excruciatingly slow.

I am a huge fan of Edgar Allen Poe, but this would turn anyone off from ever reading the Master.

So apparently, you have to have 600 characters in a review. It's too bad there wasn't similar requirements on the writers, actors and directors when it came to creating this. Maybe it would have been better. Lord knows it couldn't have been worse.

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.

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.

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 movie couldn't have possibly been any worse. They made a terrible choice casting the lead role. I would say that hair and costuming made him look terrible, but it's more likely he just showed up wearing whatever he wanted to. No care was put into this. The narration is poorly written and exponentially more grating than your common movie narration, which is a pretty weak device in the first place. I'm sure the filmmakers have never read the source material and probably don't even really like Poe's stories. They just needed an IP to attach to their weak efforts for increased visibility. The worst ever.
