This week on DtW, houses fall and generations... v? Dan and Raul are back on the streaming scene with two new shows making waves on the socials. First up, the world of The Boys dips into higher education with the university-based superhero academy show Gen V on Prime. As usual for this world of metaphysical debauchery and depression, the powers that the kids at Godolkin University, God U for short, come with dark origins and karmic retributions. The first ep alone has many tragic events surrounded by the fun and drama of starting a new school, and the show ties back to the main series while keeping a unique identity. Over on the big red N, modern horror stalwart Mike Flannagan has delivered another scary story with The Fall of the House of Usher. An Edgar Allan Poe adaptation (or several) by way of Severance and similar stories, Bruce Greenwood stars as the patriarch of a Pharma family plagued by diabolical deaths. Two shows that promise creative kills and gore aplenty just in time for the spookiest day of the year!
