Show notes

Now that the guys have seen Mike Flanagan's entire vision, does it change their view of the show as an adaptation? In a word, yes, but also not completely. In episode 188, Luke & James geek out about "oners," get floored by a particular jump scare, and have their minds blown in the Red Room. They finish out the project with a final vote on which was better, Shirley Jackson's novel or the Netflix series based on it!

"A Different Kind of Horror" ITF Watch: The Haunting of Hill House (2018 TV series) episodes 1-5 Jun 17, 2021

Show notes

Mike Flanagan has made a name for himself as an adapter of famous works of horror, including several Stephen King projects, but it is his 2018 Netflix series adaptation of Shirley Jackson's famous novel that may be his most notable outing yet. In episode 187, Luke & James don't always agree as they discuss how the vibe of the show differs from the book, why significant changes may have been made to suit the format, what the show is absolutely nailing, and where it may be a little too direct.
