American Horror Stories (2021)
Review on first 3 episodes: great so far!
Not a spoiler.
I was worried when I saw they were rescuing the rubber man idea from the Murder House, but I quickly realized that was really only a small part of the overall theme and this new series has potential.
People may have an issue with some of the more intimate themes discussed in the first 2 episodes but great horror comes from great characters. So just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.
The real reason I'm here is the third episode. Drive In. It feels very comfortable right away, like a long forgotten VHS tape or that 15 year old issue of Fangoria. It's Nostalgia mixed with a fun Friday night feel.
After finishing the third episode I'm hooked. It's like they made all the stories that were little tidbits saved from the regular series that were better off on their own. I really enjoyed the stories so far and am excited for what's next. It's been a long time since we had a new (good) horror anthology series.

A 5.5, really?
So far the score here is 5.5 and that's being a bit too generous I must say. Yes it's quirky and fun for the first 30 min, but I'm an hour in and realized I don't want to give them 1:44min of my life. They get 64, and two of those were the time it took me to write this.

I really wanted to like this and I did...
Until the credits rolled. I felt like not only had we not finished the movie, but I feel like all the "lessons" we learned along the way didn't mean anything. Whatever ambiguity the story was supposed to leave in the air, completely overpowers any sense of closure or
See? Not so happy when someone only completes 9/10ths of their idea, are you?
