Les Enfants maudits

You're ruining V. C. Andrews works. If you're going to use her material then stick to it. Heaven Leigh Castel was the dark angel because she had dark black hair and was the picture image of her mother EXCEPT the hair. Reading comprehension has gone down the drain. At least now I understand why we have all these remakes, y'all can't write even when it's been already wrote for you. If you're a fan of Miss Andrews just don't. Tgese could have been written without the use of her name. Just call it something else and name your own characters and you'll have your own story because none of this is the Castel series. You've veered so far off from beginning to end it's not even funny anymore.

I enjoyed "Flowers in the attic" series, even though it was twisted, it made sense. This one I just had a hard time keeping up with and the characters were just over the top dramatic - it seems a little spoofy! Lol.

So many things wrong with these movies... i was basically thinking, why did they bother making them if they didn't want to stick to the same storyline?

The books were fantastic and they have made such a mess. The basic things that were important to the story line were the colour of the characters hair, it may seem like it wasn't important but if you are a fan of the books you will know why. Heaven was brunette, her mother Angel was Blonde, the next book is called 'Dark Angel' because heaven looked like Angel but dark. Her step mother Sarah was a red head and so were all her children except Fanny, she always wanted Luke's dark hair boy so he would love her, but in the movie Tom was dark hair. It's the whole character plot they lost with this.

Fanny should have been younger and cheeky, very promiscuous and beautiful.

Kitty should have been a Vuluptous Red Head. Leigh should have been a young beautiful blonde. So many issues with all these Characters that didn't suit the descriptions.

The other issue is the sets, just seemed so wrong, the cabin should have been shabby and poor, they made it seem modern and new. The set's were made to look like they were all Modern, but this should have been in the 60's in poor outback West Virginia. The manor Farthy was not luxurious enough.

They missed so much crucial plot in the first movie, where heaven and her siblings were left alone for months and they had no food left, they had to steal and find food themselves. They missed out on so much juicy details, just really poor and lazy, the acting wasn't great either.

Sorry but why did they bother, did the writers even read the books?

This was horrific and a really shameful portrayal of Andrew's stunning writing. I've read this book at different decades of my life and I must say I've enjoyed the series more as I've aged. Furthermore, I have taught English for 20 years and am also an avid reader of all narratives. So my level of expertise doesn't limit me to Virginia Andrew's writing.

So many poignant details that hold so much importance throughout the series were changed and it baffles me to as of why? The hair colours? The level of poverty? The occupations and historical backgrounds? The integral dialogue and narrative that holds deep relevance to the series as a whole!?!?! The TV series writers who chose these creative changes had little to no understanding of the narrative presented and the metaphorical purpose of these choices.

It's a shame.

I adore this series. My favourite of Andrew's. This TV series, in this day and age, had so much potential when it had such an intricate and visually passionate narrative to work with. It failed beyond belief!!!

This is literally the worst movie ever made. The acting is awful. The writing and plot make zero sense. The characters are so bad. I don't know how this got made. If you can't laugh at it, there's no point. Seriously is so nonsensical I don't even know where to begin. I feel like the only ones to blame for this piece of crap are the producers, and they should be run out of Hollywood on a rail for this thing existing. Worst most horrific thing that has ever been produced, I don't think even the 1986 Flowers in the Attic is worse than this thing. I cannot believe it's gotten above one star ever. So very, very awful.
