I...disagree. I think Mike Flanagan's previous work in both making new IP horror movies and shows, and making remakes/follow-ups while honoring the original material (ie, Doctor Sleep) has been rather consistently decent. If it's horror related, I pay attention about what this guy might do next. And some others, like Ari Aster, but to me Flanagan is actually a good sign.
After I saw Flanagan's The Haunting of Hill House, I watched The Haunting. The Haunting was a decent horror movie, but Flanagan made something unique with his miniseries.
Yeah that's when i started paying attention to what this guy does... Really good series.
I agree. I would ignore a Carrie series if it didn't have his name attached.
Talking about the other one...Seems Ari Aster is also about to release something. With Pedro Pascal, Emma Stone, Phoenix and Austin Butler... Looks promising.
