It's a good thing I don't listen to the voices in my head. I'd be a mass murderer by now, Selena Gomez would be tied up in my sex dungeon and, worst of all, I would have simply ignored American Horror Story. See, I had a few recorded and stored to watch, but I just didn't have any interest in it. Dunno why, I guess I've been burned one too many times with the likes of V, Teen Wolf and Flash Forward to invest any time into another franchise. Thankfully, I relented and decided to give American Horror Story 20 minutes of my time before deciding if I was going to continue. You'd be forgiven for thinking the guy behind Glee couldn't cut it in the horror genre. But behind the shiny white teeth and dance routines of Glee there's always been a bit of a darker edge.. and he unleashes that ten fold in this, because hoo WEE it is nasty. The basic premise; a family move into a house. It's haunted. So far, so seen it a million times. But with an, at times thoroughly wicked, script and some great performances (Jessica Lang pretty much steals the show), the show has more jumps, scares and genuinely creepy moments than most horror films in the last five years. And I'm only into the second episode. Folks, gather round and get involved.

And for the hat trick, when I saw AHS, I was like Universal fucking acclaim on that one. Stephen King meets David Lynch meets a NIN video meets Rosemary's Baby. Even my wife adores it. Sexa nd violence and more sex and more violence and then some violent sex followed by sexy violence in a well-written horror show with a great cast that goes out of it's way to push the envelope as far as basic cable will go. Nothing not to like.
