Fall Of The House Of Usher: The Original Netflix Series (Limited Seafoam Green Coloured Vinyl)
The Fall Of The House Of Usher is an American Gothic Horror Drama miniseries created by Mike Flanagan (The Haunting of Hill House, Hush) and starring an ensemble cast led by Carla Gugino (Gerald’s Game, Sin City), Kate Siegel, Bruce Greenwood, Henry Thomas, and Rahul Kohli.
Loosely based on various works by the 19th century author Edgar Allan Poe into a single narrative taking place from 1953 to 2023.
It recounts the rise to power of Roderick Usher and his sister Madeline Usher, and the events leading to the deaths of all six of Roderick’s children.
The series has received critical acclaim and praise.
The series score by Flanagan’s long time collaborators, The Newton Brothers, features sweeping and dark orchestral cues expertly crafted to accompany the gothic, Poe inspired storytelling. While melancholic and brooding, the music is also beautiful and playful at times.
Massive orchestral swells are met with bombastic percussion which then pull the listener into haunting and fright inducing territory.
