Mike Flanagan might be a fan-favorite horror director, but beyond his horrific concepts, there's one thing he does better than his peers.
The Big Picture Writer-director Mike Flanagan has quickly become one of the biggest names in horror with films like Hush and Gerald’s Game, and thought-provoking series like The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass. His latest work, The Fall of the House of Usher, is loosely based on Edgar Allen Poe's short story of the same name and hits Netflix on October 13.
Flanagan has acknowledged and defended his penchant for lengthy monologues despite the pushback he’s received. In a 2022 interview with DiscussingFilm, when asked what inspires him to bring this theatrical element to his storytelling, he said, “Soliloquy and monologue, I think, are art forms in and of themselves. I respond to them when I see it done well.
Mike Flanagan's Monologues Stick With You Flanagan’s first and possibly most beloved series, The Haunting of Hill House, has several memorable monologues, the most impactful of which takes place in the series finale. After Nell’s death, she’s finally able to speak openly and honestly with her siblings as a ghost in a way she never could when she was alive.
Midnight Mass is one of Flanagan’s most monologue-heavy series to date, and its most significant ones are performed in a single take. Childhood friends and social outcasts Erin and Riley reconnect as adults and ask each other one of the most persistent questions in Flanagan’s work: what happens after we die? Riley, an atheist, and Erin, a Catholic, have rather different perspectives on what awaits them in death.
