I just want this thing to be epic. Dad doesn’t believe in me and the rest make fun of me…It’s harder for me. And you know that. You know that. But the rest don’t.
Scenes of The fall of the House of Usher that I'm a little bit obsessed with :
Obviously. The one where Madeline and Verna kiss (nobody is surprised) because it's less than 1 minute long, it's never mentionned afterwards and yet it makes every scene they have together much more interesting (+ 2 girlkissers confirmed, that's a win !).
When Roderick watches corpses rain from the sky ??? That was so powerful wtf it carried a sense of sheer dread and anguish that I can't stop thinking about.
Tamerlane's death. Idk why it stuck with me so much, aside from the fact that it was Samantha Sloyan, it was beautifully filmed, and the fucking spasm at the end !!!! It was so fucking pathetic and sad, Tammy my sweet little girlfailure !
Victorine's whole going crazy thing. I love the Tell-Tale Heart but making it about lesbians ??? Oh mike the man that you are !!
The acid rain. Obviously. And when Verna kisses the melted body and there's a bit of flesh that sticks to her.... this was disgusting I want more !
When Roderick is alone with the Raven after finding out Lenore died. Very powerful + great climax and use of the poem !
The conversation between Juno and Tammy, it was one of the rare actually sweet scenes of the show, i'm glad Juno made it out alive !! And ruth codd's comedic talent is absolutely priceless !!
When Roderick tells Auggie to turn around because his dead mother is standing behind him. I laughed so hard. I feel like this was a meta-reference to Flanagan's habit of having ghosts just standing there in the background and never interacting with the characters and I absolutely LOST IT when she turned around like "nevermind".
Feel free to add your fav scenes because I probably forgot some of them !!
"Family" is showing up to watch your older sister die (and bringing popcorn). The Usher bastards watching Tammy's death scene, courtesy of @flanaganfilm on instagram (honestly all they need is score cards...)
The Fall of the House of Usher is so fucking funny. Was not expecting to laugh out loud and did, multiple times. Especially with the whole series opening with “Another Brick in the Wall” - that shit slayed me.
Also way for @flanaganfilm to really let everyone in the cast just go fucking nuts and play the absolute worst people ever. 10/10 decision. They’re all terrible and I love them.
huge props to sauriyan sapkota (prospero) bc as great as he was in the midnight club (his first professional acting job), he went toe to toe with some pretty big players in the fall of the house of usher (his SECOND EVER professional acting job) and completely held his own
