While Ian Holm was good as the creature (think Alien) I'm not convinced the dual role was the right way to go.
I definitely recommend The Suicide Club and Fall of the House of Usher, The Open Door as well as it's rather creepy.

Sweeney Todd was one i wasn't keen on though. It was tedium to a tee.

The Mummy's Curse is based on Jewel of the Seven Stars (Blood from the Mummy's Tomb) which is pretty dull to begin with when you don't have the ample charms of Valerie Leon to light your way.

I just finished the first episode of Legion, absolutely loved it not what I was expecting at all. It was almost Wes Anderson like, Dan Stevens and Aubrey Plaza are fantastic.

Noah Hawley worked wonders with Fargo and he's hit the ground running with this.

I really don't know how they got four season out of it, as it seems its a one or two season show from the story line.

Exactly. I thought the same. It kinda dragged and became repetitive.
