This 91% Rotten Tomatoes Series Just Prompted Stephen King To Call Mike Flanagan the "Quentin Tarantino of Horror"

Mike Flanagan's accomplished slate of movie and television projects has made him the recipient of global praise, but none quite so famous or flattering as this. Just a few days ago, fellow horror icon Stephen Kingtook to X to post a glowing reaction to one of Flanagan's most well-received projects, going so far as to say that the series makes a case for "Mike Flanagan being the Quentin Tarantino of horror." The comments stem from Flanagan's work on his final project at Netflix, The Fall of the House of Usher, and only boost the acclaim of a series already sitting at a comfortable 91% on Rotten Tomatoes. As for what King means by this comparison, the longtime author doesn't elaborate, but there are actually more similarities between the two filmmakers than audiences may think.
