The Fall of Usher

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.

I remember watching Romeo & Juliette several years ago with Leonardo DiCaprio and liking it a lot. Sure, it's not easy to process old Shakespearean English in our day & age - and it's similar here, with "The Fall of Usher." I especially liked the part where Romeos' father says, "Bring me my broadsword," while grabbing a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun.

But, if you can get past that aspect of the film, I rather like the way Edgar Allen Poe wrote, way back when. And after that, I found the rest of this movie enjoyable enough. It's generally pretty slow in the narration and story-telling, and not necessarily really "scary" or containing a lot of cheap "jump scares."

Here, the horror lies in the descent of a mans' consciousness into madness and the process by which he finds himself undone. It's a slow, psychological kind of horror. I found the movie enjoyable enough.

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.

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.
