What Moves the Dead

3.6 rounded down
I decided to rate this in comparison to the original short story, The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Allen Poe, which is a four star short story for me.
I liked the expansion of the setting and the characters, and some of the plot changes. 
One creepy scene, almost halfway in, will stick with me for a long time, more than anything in the short story. I wish there had been more of that in the second half.
I feel the ending was a real departure from the original, and while I like the change in some respects, I also feel that it was like removing the heart of The Fall of the House of Usher from the story.
