Ambitious, intriguing and ultimately a trifle confounding, “The Fall of the House of Usher” represents Mike Flanagan’s latest macabre series for Netflix, this time taking a page from Roger Corman by adapting (even more loosely) the works of Edgar Allan Poe. English majors should get a kick from the names and titles, but the emphasis on excess detracts from a limited series worth watching upon a midnight dreary but that doesn’t deserve to be loved.
