10 Netflix Book Adaptations That Totally Missed the Mark

Even without the disturbing allegations about costar Armie Hammer that broke around the same time as this movie's release, the newest adaptation of Daphne du Maurier's classic novel is a glamorous, gothic hot mess. Rather than leaning into the gothic horror of it, the movie takes a watered-down approach and adds a hastily constructed "happy" epilogue that results in a movie that seems to have missed the whole point of the book it's supposedly adapting.

Read Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier instead.
