I cannot believe this is a thing.

I am seriously skeeved out by the idea of a Flowers in the Attic movie. I mean, I understand what they're hoping for: "It was shocking... titillating... the Fifty Shades of its day!" But is this really the kind of thing people feel nostalgic about? Want to actually watch? I remember the books being available at supermarket checkout stands for years when I was little (thanks to the magic of trade-marking, "V.C. Andrews" continued writing long after the original author's death), but while I'm sure there were thousands of teenage girls furtively reading Andrews's overheated stories about incestuous affairs in the mid-80s, I have trouble picturing those same girls clamoring for a televised version of the same material thirty-odd years later.
