There’s a Netflix eight part series that weaves most of Edgar Allen Poe’s stories into a 21st Century setting. . . where the telling of the “House of Usher” is plainly the Sacklers and its “Fall” is due to a drug called. . . Ligadone (a highly addictive pain med).
The sister’s whole visage -- makeup and wig -- closely resembles a member of the actual Sackler dynasty (as pictured in my graphics at upper left).
And Mark Hamill (!) plays the family’s ghoul of a lawyer!
Do catch it! Every bit of it resonates -- and Poe's "Raven" flies through it all (warning: intense gore and violence).
