American Horror Story

Oniram

Did anyone catch this show tonight? I just watched it and ive got to say its so amazing! its unlike any other thriller ive ever seen. Finally there's something that can be scary without having some string music playing and suddenly stop to have something pop out at you. Just the fact that the experiences in the show are different depending on each person is absolutely brilliant! And this is definitely not what i was expecting from the ads that were given for it, but i must say.. im impressed. enough of my glory rant.. here's some of the trailers for those of you who have not heard of or seen them.

Thanks for the heads up I'll have to check it out.

Flava-Fly

Yeah man I'll scope it out on your recommendation. Looks decent.

I though it was pretty good. Definitely had some creepyness and weirdness going on which was cool.

Jeremy-S

Ah, I missed it!! Ah well, I'll get it on demand or something.

I WANT to like it, but those ads do nothing for it. It looks like Nip/Tuck with weirdos in vinyl. Soooo scary... But I want to give it a chance, so at least 3 episodes in till I judge it. Thanks for the reminder that it was on

skylebones

Dang! Been waiting for this and totally forgot it was on. Hopefully I can catch it again.

yeah i didnt really know what to make of the show when i saw the ads.. to be honest i thought it was an ad at first for Halloween Horror Nights in Universal Studios this year. lol. But the story sort of kicked off similar to the Walking Dead where you were just tossed into something that everyone but you knows about.

Jeremy-S

Hmmm, then maybe it's good they didn't give away much in those ads. Risky, but at the same time a LOT better than giving it all away in a 30 second commercial. I'm thinking I'll be checking it out as soon as I can.

Mark Dygert

I caught it, it was pretty cool, I'll check it out again for sure. I hadn't tuned into the media hype before watching it just happened to be on and caught my attention. It's still way to early to tell if its going to be good but it has potential.

Jeremy-S

Just in case anyone needs it, the first episode is online

[EDIT] it was alright. Had some cool moments, and an excellent score but there's not been anything that really ulls me in and makes me want to see more. But like I always say, gotta give it 3 episodes before passing judgement.

Just watched on Hulu. Pretty cool; I'll definitely continue to watch it, but the camera cuts got annoying to me.

Mark Dygert

There where a few points that I laughed and I don't think they intended people to laugh.

Part 1

When the guy choked his chicken then cried afterward

part 2

When the kids where looking at the opossum

part 3

When the southern neighbor told her daughter to go watch Dora

Frump

Yeah, I laughed at the same stuff Mark, and other various things throughout the episode.

It was insane, but I liked it a lot because of that. The acting wasn't great and the directing was all over the place, and nothing made sense, but it just makes me want to watch more. Lots of WTF moments and it was only the first episode. I'm going to keep watching for sure, it was too weird not to.

the camera cuts/positioning is something that i think was really cool actually.

It was neat but overused imo. After a while it just felt unnecessary and distracting.

Oniram

so after the first three episodes.. (well after the first period lol) me and my brother are hooked on this show. i think its great how it starts off the show with a different story about the house and then has it in some way tie in to the new family.

the backstory of everything is something that makes this really interesting. so many subplots n whatnot going on.

Wahlgren

So is this some kind of ghosts and people living together? They looked like pretty good buddies in the trailer. Didn't look very scary

I'll check it out tho!

BlvdNights

Just started watching this while I bake lightmaps. Loving it so far.
