i watched the first episode, which was like 'what's the absolute maximum number of horror cliches can we fit into one show slot'.
then i watched the second episode, and it was like 'what's the absolute maximum number of horror cliches can we fit into one show slot'. |

I just started watching American Horror Story, as per a friends recommendation. Finished the pilot about an hour ago. On one hand, the show manages to pack in as many horror cliches as possible in the span of an hour, and there are certain aspects of the show that I find laughable (high school bullying, columbine-fantasy kid, retarded neighbor girl who is omniscient maybe?). On the other hand, there's something about it that I just can't put my finger on and, whatever that something may be, it's got me looking forward to the next episode. |
My main gripe at this point is with how obvious everything is. By the 2nd or 3rd episode it was already obvious that Tate 1)was dead and 2) had shot up his school. Some of the ancillary characters (like the guy whose face is all burned) are really cool. Others are miserably difficult to watch (pre-teen drama-queen Hayden). At this point, I can't imagine the show getting any better. I feel the same way about it as I felt about this season of The Walking Dead - something to watch when I'm having trouble sleeping.
