Shitlist Halloween Reviews - American Horror Story 1-2 1 of 5

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, I’m Amateur Fan 2.27 and welcome to this year’s Halloween specials of the Shitlist where bad movies burn, through the next few weeks I’ll be looking over some shows and movies that relate to the traditional holiday that’s been going on for century’s Halloween. And seeing that the new Halloween is coming around the corner (which I am excited to see by the way) I thought it would be interesting to start this year in a different perspective when it comes to the Horror genre.

Anthology Horror.... it’s been around since the early 60s starting with the cult classic horror movies like the Vault of Terror or Tales from the Crypt or in modern times such as the Tales from the Crypt TV series or this weeks TV series... American Horror Story

For those who don’t know American Horror Story is currently one of the best horror shows that’s presently going with a strong fan-base due to the writing, characters and plots per season. It’s also one of few shows that changes location per season such as setting one in an institution for the criminally insane towards a cursed hotel.

The show is created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk who some of you may remember for creating Glee, Nip/Tuck and Scream Queens, and released from 5th October in 2011 on FX but escalated to 10 seasons with the ongoing 8th season Apocalypse which I’ve yet to see.

As said before the show is known for switching different locations as the series progress but it also changes time zones as well such as Asylum (being my favourite season which I will get to shortly) is set in the 60’s or Freakshow being set in the 50’s or the recent series from Murder House and Coven being set in the present day which also benefits the story per season.

Now for something that is known for the series is the actors that the series presents such as Evan Peters from X-men fame for portraying Quicksilver in the Fox series (which technically should be the MCU’s version as Disney has legally bought FOX studios. Sarah Paulson (The People v. O.J.Simpson: American Crime Story) and Lily Rabe (Miss Stevens) who are regulars to the series as they star in pretty much every season.

Though other cast members have been in the series such as Connie Britton, Dylan McDermott, Taissa Farmiga, Denis O’Hare, Zachary Quinto, Frances Conroy, Emma Roberts and Finn Wittrock though some of those I’ve mentioned have been in several series of the show but apart from 3 leading actresses who I think personally stole the show when it came to the series, Jessica Lange who stars as the leading villainess in the first 4 seasons, Kathy Bates who stars from season 3-6 as characters of support and finally Angela Bassett who is more of a powerful character depending on the season.

For this review I’ll be focusing on the first 2 seasons of the show starting with Murder House, a season based on a family moving to L.A from Boston after an affair was caught out which leads them to living in a mansion which dark secrets, which also deals with infidelity, depression family and school violence, which I’ll attempt to ignore that factor the best I can, as well as sexuality of both genders.

After that it will be Asylum, again one of my favourite seasons of the show, which is set in 1964 based in a mental institution for the criminally insane in Massachusetts following an mechanic accused of being a murderer being sent into the asylum along with a journalist being sent there due to her sexuality which mixes along with demonic possession, extraterrestrial abduction and supernatural/scientific influences among patients. The season is obviously based on insanity ut it holds more themes towards Religion against science, racism, faith and corruption.

Before I start, I’m only going to be stating my personal opinions on each season which some of you may not agree with but before you grab your pitchforks, this is only opinion based and for this moment I am only going to go against the characters and not the actors.

Murder House or known as the first season to several fans is in my opinion is one of the weaker seasons and I’ll give my reasons shortly, the season is based on the Harmon family who left Boston due to the wife Vivien catching her husband Dr Ben Harmon having an affair with one his students following a miscarriage. This does lead to some creative ideas towards the family when they move to L.A. they attempt to do what they can to survive a marriage as well as saving a family especially when it comes towards their daughter Violet who gets into trouble at her new school.

The other characters are quite unique in their own way such as Constance Langdon, their next door neighbour who has some secrets to hide of her own, her daughter Adelaide and her dead son Tate who has a darker secret which lead to a major reveal on his own character differently as the show progresses, and not forgetting Larry Harvey or known as the Burned Man, a former owner of the House the Harmon’s currently resides in.

I like the characters of Vivien and Ben as they are in desperate need of rejoining their marriage from separation, especially when it comes down to affairs, though it is hard to discuss when it is literally taken and written in a realistic tone, I’ve to admit, these characters are my favourite throughout the season.

Violet however is something different, from when she appeared, I knew for a fact that she was going to be a downer towards the end of the season, granted they attempted to make her a key character as she does reflect the events between her parents’ marriage but christ her annoyance gets out of hand very quickly, but there was a twist that some saw coming though I saw different which I will reveal shortly.

Tate Langdon.... I may get this character over and done with, from the moment I saw this character, I knew for a fact that he was going to be trouble, especially when it came to the history of the house as well as an impact towards the family and I mean a BIG impact... You see this season going into different time segments, such as one set in 1922, one in 1965 and one in 1994, Tate is portrayed as a teenager but one thing that I was surprised at was that he committed a massacre at a local school in the show which came back to bite him badly.

He does show interest in several actions as he’s misunderstood, sociopathic and mainly has psychological problems such as outbursts leading to shooting up a school as well as burning Larry which I will get to shortly, I admire the way they came to this character but due to the crimes that the characters has done has seemed to close to home especially what’s going on in America at the current moment, for my American brothers who are reading this, I am sorry for your losses and my prayers who have fallen.

Larry who used to live in the house has a different action towards the Harmons especially towards Ben who is informed that the house has major problems very quickly before things get worse, he did live in the house as they reside in but tragedy does emerge as his burns are explained, you see the House does have the ability to revive those who died their making them ghosts who can’t leave the house, I’ll get to that in a moment.

Larry was once married to Constance shortly after living in the house to Tate’s disapproval which leads him to kill one of Constance’s children to her request against child services, which leads to Tate to snap and go on a rampage leading to burn his step-father alive as well as to go on a massacre.

Constance, who you may think is a nice lady next door but she’s far from bloody nice, at the beginning of the series, she’s seen as a thief, a liar, a monster but she’s more a motherly figure towards her children, she too has connections to the house as well as personal experiences with the ghosts.

She even knows that her son resides in the house because she used to live there with her family, only to move next door due to the tragedy, she lived there with her ex-husband who she killed along with her maid following a rape-attempt which also ended with the maid getting killed in the process.

The other characters are Adelaide who is Constance’s daughter with learning difficulties who is killed during a hit and run on Halloween, Chad Warwick and his lover Patrick who were killed in the house by Tate, Hayden McClaine, the student that Ben slept with who is emotionally obsessed with. Crazed surgeon, Charles and Nora Montgomery and their son turned monster known as the Infantata. And finally Moira O’Hara played by both Frances Conroy and Alexandra Breckenridge, a maid who was murdered by Constance.

The House itself is interesting to look at as well which is known for the crimes that occurred there from different time periods, leading those who died at the residence will have the ability to reappear as ghosts dressed from that error leading them to haunt the location as it is their final resting place, I will discuss the crimes momentarily but first I would state the house or Mansion at this point is one of the key locations of the series and the most well known as it’s the iconic look of the season, you know trouble is about to happen with it as well as its history.

Crimes have occurred there starting with the 1920s with the Montgomery’s with their son Thaddeus being taken killed and then dismembered leading Charles with grief to mend the son with the best of his abilities making the child into a monster known as the Infantata, an abomination from medical science.

1947 It was the location of a dentist where a young actress was to be seen only to be raped and killed following an anaesthetic overdose leading her to be dismembered and thrown into a field leading her identity to be Elizabeth Short, the infamous Black Dahlia.

1968, it was the sorority house which was known as the resting place of two students Maria and Gladys who were killed by an unknown man leading their souls to be trapped there.

1978, it was an abandoned mansion where two twins Brian and Tory planned on destroying it only for Addie to warn them, leading them to be in the basement and violently killed by the Infantata.

1983: Moira was brutally murdered with Hugo Langdon following a rape attempt gone wrong by Constance.

1994. Following requests from his new wife, Larry kills one of Constance’s children in the attic of the house due to him being deformed and not wanting social services to take him, leading Tate to go on a rampage (overdosed with cocaine/crystal meth) killing over 15 students in Westfield High School, leading for a S.W.A.T. team to invade the house and gun him down in front of Constance.

2010: A couple Chad and Patrick are planning a nice Halloween leading to an argument between them leading for Patrick to leave for the Rubber Man (Tate in disguise) to brutally strangle Chad and stab Patrick when he returns.

2011: The Harmon family moves in following the uncover of an affair the husband was having with a student, leading to the ghosts to appear leading Tate to manipulate the family leading towards the daughter Violet to suicide via overdose, Addie to be involved with a hit-and-run, Vivien to be raped by Tate without consent leading her to be pregnant with twins leading her to die due to complications via birth with one of her twins Joseph and Ben Harper to pass when the Ghosts get revenge on the family for leaving.

The history of the house is vague but you have to watch it in order to understand what is going on with the house, I found this season in particular to be weak though following an interesting idea on how the supernatural can infect the world of reality. The problem with it is the characters that reside in the house alone especially when it comes to the teenage daughter, especially when it comes to surviving a broken marriage along with parents.

Now for Asylum which is set in the year 1964 in the mental institution, Briarcliff Manor, an asylum for the criminally insane which is possibly the strongest season of the show due to storylines between characters as well as the setting itself like in Murder House, the setting is home to a series of dark secrets, mainly towards the doctors who run the facility starting with a long list of characters which I will get into momentarily.

This raises a few good ideas towards faith and religion going against science and nature which is a good idea if I’m entirely honest but this also raises a few problems when it comes to questioning our morals in faith and religion. There is also a twist as there is a serial killer known as Bloody Face, a murderer who preys on women with skill that leaves no evidence untouched. Let’s begin with the characters.

Lana Winters played by Sarah Paulson is a journalist who seen closer to home when she is locked in the facility following blackmail against her female lover who is against lead antagonist, I have high respect for this woman to survive the ordeal especially when it came to going through literal hell when it she’s forced against her own sexuality.

Kit Walker played by Evan Peters is thrown into Briarcliff following accusations of being Bloody Face after the disappearance of his wife Alma in attempt to keep their interracial marriage secret, only for her to be abducted. In Briarcliff he is blackmailed by another leading character as well as beaten by both guards and inmates for his ‘crimes’ but he does get his comeuppance at the end.

Grace Bertrand played by Lizzie Brochere is a French immigrant who was thrown in Briarcliff for murdering her family but is a major character in supporting Kit due to believing that he’s not the murderer but he thinks over wise when it comes to her case as she is known as a manipulator in the Asylum.

Sister Jude Martin played by Jessica Lange is known as the major fist of Briarcliff bringing a powerful authority figure towards the inmates leading the guards of Briarcliff with her orders, she also has a hidden past containing a hit-and-run following a drunken encounter with a small girl (fortunately she survived), she is known as wrecking ball in her own way when it comes towards her power of Briarcliff.

Dr Arthur Arden AKA Nazi war criminal Hans Gruper is played by James Cromwell is the chief physician in Briarcliff who has a strong history of violence towards women, including a character I will get to next week when I continue the series at hand. Arden is known to torture his patients even performing sadistic experiments on patients with no family to mutilated patients that surround the woods by the facility.

Sister Mary Eunice McKee plated by Lily Rabe is a young nun who works with Sister Jude closely who favours her naivety as an act of purity, she is one of the interesting characters of the series as it’s seen as she is a sympathising character who becomes more of a monster as the season progresses in the later episodes, she becomes possessed by something deadly when an exorcism attempt is failed.

Monsignor Timothy Howard played by Joseph Fiennes is Sister Jude’s Superior and the object that she infatuates over; though they both run the facility together he is quite aware of Arden’s experiments with the other inmates of Briarcliff. But as a major character of Briarcliff Manor, he’s also one of the strangest characters as he changes his morals before questioning his beliefs first.

Dr Oliver Thredson played by Zachary Quinto is the psychiatrist of Briarcliff hired by Sister Mary Eunice, he’s one of the manipulating characters of this season and possibly the most dangerous characters following his beliefs of the treatment of Briarcliff’s patients though his methods of his occupation are incredible but his methods are over stepped when his identity of Bloody Face is revealed.

The story is pretty obscure to say the least as it is honestly based on insanity alone, mainly because that’s the trick of the season is how it actually works with insanity being the main focus towards the characters on their survival of Briarcliff and how they left with their sanity intact. I highly recommend watching this season because the season is so easily paced between different perspectives in characters especially the villains.

This would be the strongest season by far because it explores religion against our own moral judgement; the writing behind that alone is possibly the best I’ve heard in a long time, especially when it’s from a horror based TV-series. The character development is interesting to look at but it raises a major question against the setting, especially towards their survival in a hostile location. If I’m honest this is possibly my favourite season of the show by far and I’ve yet to see Roanoke and Cult.

As I said before this is part 1 of 5 reviews that I’ll be going over this Halloween, starting with the first 2 seasons of American Horror Story and the next 2 which will be Coven and Freakshow, and after that on the third week I’ll be going over something special for you guys so hopefully you guys will enjoy; aside from that, I hope you guys have a nice Halloween and enjoy the holiday.
