Say what you want to about American Horror Story, but it knows what it wants to be, and knows the best way to make that happen: lots of random sex scenes, and more butts per hour than any other show on cable. In between that, there are any number of horrifying events, from the throwing of bodily fluids to brutal canings, unwanted surgeries, and some of the best dialogue on television.
In the wake of the successful and highly entertaining first season, which featured the Harmon family in a haunted house populated by souls both friendly and evil, creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk made a brave, wise decision.
Rather than revisiting the first season and continuing that story, they decided to tell a new American Horror Story with completely different characters, a completely different setting, and a whole new sort of horror. Rather than finding some other kind of supernatural creature, this season of American Horror Story is hinting strongly that the horror isn't from without, but from within.
Alternately, it's not ghosts that are the horror, but science gone horribly awry. And, apparently, some science fiction (or hallucinations thereof).
But first, duelling story lines. The A-story, at least this week, is that of Briarcliff Sanitarium in the modern day. Formerly a tuberculosis hospital where dead people were lowered down a body chute dubbed the Death Chute, it was later turned into a sanitarium by the Catholic Church. Now, it's a decrepit old ruin that is one of the most haunted places in America.
Basically, Briarcliff is Ryan Murphy's version of Waverly Hills Sanatorium in my home town of Louisville, Kentucky. Waverly Hills was, at one time, one of the busiest TB hospitals in the world, and the legend says that tens of thousands of people died there (though more conservative and truthful numbers suggest it was fewer than ten thousand).
It is indeed haunted—I have been on a ghost tour and I have seen, heard, and experienced things that I cannot explain—and every paranormal television show has done a ghost hunt taping there, and there is indeed a body chute nicknamed the Death Tunnel.
While it never was an insane asylum, after it closed as a TB hospital, it became a geriatric home for dementia patients and those with mobility issues before being closed down by the Commonwealth of Kentucky due to patient abuse and neglect.
At one point, a group wanted to tear the hospital down and build a giant statue of Jesus in its place, but those plans fell through and now Waverly Hills is a year-round ghost touring site with a popular haunted house attraction every Halloween.
Something totally different in a entertainment landscape of toned down crap. Finally something that pushes the boundaries and takes some chances. In a time when everybody worries so much about whats real they unwilling to buy into anything slightly outlandish. Suspend your disbelieve and take a walk into the strangest, most twisted little series I've seen since Carnivale. I love this nightmarish ride into the twilight zone.
I think the casting is superb. Great acting throughout. The writing is fast paced and doesn't stretch things out like many long winded series. Too many shows take for ever to get the ball rolling. This show is fast paced and never leaves you much chance to breath before springing another traumatic event your way. I can hardly wait to see where this fun house ride leads to next.
