I can't remember which I wanted to watch? Are either any good or should I not waste my time?

Thanks.

Hill House is fantastic, one of the scariest -but also really emotional series I’ve ever watched. The actors and writing are fantastic and you really get attached to the characters.

Bly Manor, however, wasn’t great IMO. It’s set in England but written and designed by someone who’s obviously never been here - lots of American anachronisms and things that jarred (they eat cottage pie with a side salad at one point 🤦‍♀️). Not a complete waste of time but nowhere near as good as Hill House.

Bly Manor was totally average.
Hill House was a slow burn initially but easily one of the best TV series I've watched, ever!

Both so good!!

Hill house is scary and cool. Bly manor was meh

Bells3032 · 28/10/2022 19:34

I'm gonna go against the grain and say bly Manor. Much preferred it. Saw it before Hill house. I found bly had deeper meaning and more background to it. Bly was more creepy and in your head and hill house was more jump scares.

But both are excellent

I watched about half an hour of Hill House , then had to put the remote in the freezer.

I may just be tired... but why the freezer?

Hill House is one of my absolute favourite things ever.

Sadly the TV wouldn't fit.

It's a friends reference, Joey keeps The Shining in the freezer as it is so scary (and then has to put Little women in as it is too sad)

Haunting of gill house is scary as hell (loved it). Blu manner is a love story but still good and has some frightening parts

The house of usher is the next one out by the director.

like the 4 he has done, Hill house, Bly manor, midnight mass and midnight club, house of usher will be different too. None are the same. He likes to play around with genre - yes all horror but different genres of horror, house of usher is an Edgar Allen Poe adaptation

ahunf · 28/10/2022 20:21

Thank you. Are there any sex scenes? Dd is fine with scary stuff.

Agree.

And when we find out what's been happening to Nell ... so sad Sad

Hill House is brilliant, Bly Manor is mediocre but watchable.

Igotjelly · 28/10/2022 20:37

I don’t remember any sec scenes.

Igotjelly · 28/10/2022 20:37

Sex*

Bly Manor is much gentler and less dramatic. Hill House is amazing.

Anyone know if Midnight Mass is a book adaptation? I know all the others are.

Greenbks · 28/10/2022 20:52

It’s an original - personal work from him.

There's a lesbian sex scene I think? Or you hear it but don't see it.

It's extremely scary though imo. Quite a bit of gore/dead bodies.

Drug use.

Suicide.

It's not for the faint hearted.
