Hey guys, am I the only one that doesn't see Season 4 of American Horror Stories pop up on my Hulu? I know that the release date was supposed to be October 15, 2024, but I still only see Seasons 1-3. Any help will be appreciated, thank you!
Absolutely brilliant episode compared to the rest, but who agrees the idea mirrors this Freddy Kruger movie so much and could tie into it?
Every single ending of majority of these episodes are the same. The main character in the story dies in some horrible way by whatever they’re trying to overcome or help. I loved how bestie was going I thought it was an interesting episode and then boom ruined by the ending, Shelly dies by rivers hand without any really good explanation. In face lift, woman gets mutilated and then also dies so her daughter becomes part of the cult. In tapeworm, Vivian gets the worm out to die in the bathtub and it goes into her roommate. In X, the woman trying to save the patients gets turned into an experiment herself. Milkmaids? Celeste dies by some psychopathic child who has like 6 lines in the episode. There’s more to list here it’s nearly every episode, am I the only person who is getting bored of this because when they watch they just can predict what’s going to happen? It takes away from the good messages of the episodes with its predictability.
Someone who is smart please explain the ending to me. The demon looking thing is holding his son but is speaking as the son, and they tell him he can leave, but what is the symbolism for the waiting room. What is he waiting for?
This episode was so bad it was funny🤣 The bank robbery plan - why are they openly discussing it in a bar? It felt like one day that thought oh let’s rob the only bank in town, and then the same night they were robbing the bank? Coincidentally the one guy had access to every security camera in the town and the one guy is a welder?
Why was the leprechaun wearing a baby grow? I thought he was quite cute in a way🤣
The boyfriend didn’t have any sort of reaction to the fact that his girlfriend is a bloody leprechaun? No questions and no emotional reaction apart from telling the unborn child he loves her or some shit lmao Then she lightly bit his neck and he died? Why don’t they keep them all down in the cellar thing and use them as a food source? Strange episode, had a good atmosphere at the start but to me it was more vampires that are shit at being vampires than leprechauns? Really weird
I have watched everything AHS. Huge fan! There are 2 seasons I did not get into but I am going back and forth about Delicate. It's interesting to a degree but in all honesty Kim Kardashian was a huge turn-off. Why she was picked I have no idea. Despite that I continued to watch and it seemed more and more like a take on Rosemary's baby. Ok..I can follow cuz I did enjoy that movie. In fact it was filmed in the apartment below my aunt's. Another point of interest for me.Delicate though kept me waiting too long for a story and I almost lost interest. When I watched it till the end all I could think about was Rosemary's baby. Kim Kardashian played her usual plastic self with no real engagement for the audience. I still wonder why she was cast. Even though the theme interested me after a while, the delivery was really slow.
i know this is late lol but i just finished! i think X and Thing under the bed were my two favorites. i liked clone but didn’t love the ending- i thought that the android would end up killing david to be with john. leprechaun and backrooms were eh for me and both were kinda predictable.
I did want to mention if you liked thing under the bed and are into dream horror go watch The Edge of Sleep on amazon prime! the main character also parasomina and is a good watch. this episode reminded me of it!
Let’s face it, American Horror Stories are not horror. They may be creepy, weird or eerie, but scary? Lol no. However, for the first time in a long time, X (S03E07) was a breath of fresh air. The black and white setting was a nice touch and the character of Anna with her open mouth was truly terrifying!
Writers take note. More like this episode please!
So I just watched the newer episode about the backrooms. SPOILER I’m so confused how the dad killed the son, I mean not that it’s a shock it’s AHS, I guess I mean, in the beginning where he was struggling so bad it was perceived as because he wanted to find his missing son. Did he not remember doing it? Or did he know he did and that’s what was eating him alive ? Idk what’s yalls theory
So this episode was clearly a miss for so many reasons, but my petty brain cant get over two things:
There petty plot holes over.
I just finished watching all of the new episodes from Season 3 and I can honestly say that these were the best AHS content that there has been in years, the last few seasons of the main line AHS have been garbage and Stories hasn't been too far behind, I had honestly almost given up on the entire thing but these episodes were absolutely dope! Thank God! This gives me some hope for the new season of AHS
Ohhh .. that’s not his dad 🤦🏽♀️ david: i love myself cue the papa roach song - suffocation no breathing
I just watched the last episode and am a bit confused by it, was that Sarah girl in the hospital possesed by that scary looking guy all along? and is Jill now dead after being pulled under the hospital bed? and was that little girl called Chickadee the child version of Sarah or was it someone else?
This episode and Lepreachaun I did not like very much. I liked Clone and X (both with good twist endings) the most and Backrooms was sort of meh but still alright.
Also after looking it up, these 5 episodes in the 2nd half of season 3 had 5 different directors (one being the same as the first half). I noticed Manny Coto wrote that last episode (thing under the bed) but didn't he pass away during the summer of last year? was this episode filmed during that time? his episodes seem to be one of the worst imo.
I REALLY loved the episode, does anyone know any series or movies with a similar concept?
i’m a fan of the twilight zone and all of the unique twists the episodes have so after hearing about this show i gave it a try and i’m enjoying it so far. i was just curious if any episodes are connected to the original show. i started with the new episodes that came out with season 3 so im still new
Seem to be a common theme with these new episodes.... Smash the patriarchy and all that.
Living in Germany and we don’t have Hulu here
The ONLY episode out of the full 3 seasons that truly GOT me was face lift!!! I couldn’t imagine the pure horror of that actually happening and enduring that! It was so brutal to me since she was already so incredibly insecure. I get that’s the point but I definitely at one point wanted to unsee it
So I just finished watching Clone and it was giving Black Mirror vibes, especially with the twist and ending. Though feels-wise, I prefer Black Mirror’s “Be Right Back” and how it delved into grief.
Anyway, I really thought David was going to clone John, especially before he ordered his death. He said something along the lines of, “You’re so close to perfect, John.” and I thought he said that because since his project was a success, he could attempt to clone John to make him perfect for him and omit the part he didn’t like (being outspoken, and I guess overall, maintaining his free agency). I think while it is true that he got sick and needed to recuperate, (he said so himself that he was facing death while John was being suffocated to death), I think he sent Clone David to John not to help the latter while he was away, but to absorb(?) the “parts” of John that he liked; so Clone David could somehow feel like John while still being David.
The homicidal part of Clone David was predictable, but I think that part of him was not because he’s a robot incapable of emotions but because he’s programmed based on David—a narcissistic, cunning, selfish, murderous man.
I had to Google if narcissists could fall in love, because it was a shock to me when David ordered John’s death. Do you think David loved John? I get that he’s manipulative, and he killed John, obviously—but if he didn’t have feelings for him, why would he keep John and Clone David’s picture? He was almost tearful when Clone David asked about John and I could tell he asked for more sex to distract himself from thinking or missing John.
And about the ending, do you think Clone David could potentially murder David? I was suspicious when he offered him a massage since we saw how it went when he did that with John.
What are your thoughts about this? Here’s to hoping Clone David would bite David’s dick off and eventually kill that SOB.
I can't stand main AHS. My main complaint is it's a fake anthology. Every time I give a new season a shot it starts off strong then half way through devolves into a campy jerk of recurring characters and references to other seasons. Feels like I'm watching SNL not a horror anthology (though admittedly AHS is funnier).
So AHSs comes around, sounds great, actual stand alone stories, more content to eat up. Start Dollhouse, strong episode, great bleak ending.. until witches show up out of nowhere and save the day. Ffs.
Is the whole series like this?
Was looking for the new season 4 and was like WTF, was supposed to drop on Oct 15th.... but after digging around the menu found they just continued season 3 with episodes 5 thru 9 which are the new season.... guess the strike had something to do with that glitchy issue.
MAJOR SPOILERS
Yesterday I watched the American horror stories episode, Clone, and I'm a little bit confused. Was David ever actually sick? The reason I ask is because of that part where John is driving to David's private clinic to visit him (and he's supposedly comatose) but then he sees David standing in the window. Later, when he finds the David clone, it's in its own room and the bottom-half is still being formed. So, was the David who John saw in the window the real David? If so, why did he pretend to be sick? Was it so that in his absence, John would have to interact with the clone and end up teaching it how to love? Or to become more emotionally "human"? During the real David's monologue to John, when he was supposedly in the coma, he made mention of the clone being "cold." Was it only meant to interact with John to learn love, and then it would be ready to be David's "partner"?
Hello everyone.
I have watched some episodes (like the 4 firsts of season 1) but I am not a big big fan so far. I want to try again ahah. I have a 4 hours flight this week so perfect opportunity. Any episode recommendation? When it comes to AHS, my favourite seasons are Cult, Freakshow and Hotel if that helps.
Thank you very much!!
LOVED:
BA’AL, Feral, Dollhouse, Aura, Bloody Mary, Necro, Bestie, Daphne, Tapeworm, and X
LIKED:
Rubber(wo)Man Part One, Drive In, Naughty List, Drive, Facelift, Lake, Leprechaun and Thing under the bed
DISLIKED:
Rubber(wo)man Part Two, Milkmaids, and Clone
HATED:
Game Over, Organs and Backrooms
Late to the party with this show, just finished Feral. Why was I so naively optimistic about a happy ending.
I want to be upset that it was an awful, kind of predictable (obviously they were going to be reunited), and rushed ending, but it fits the AHS camp so well.
me looking up where to buy a tape worm without seeing how this episode ends 🤦🏽♀️
joking 🙃
Just opened my Disney+ app on my iPad and see 5 new episodes on season 3. I thought season 3 ended last year with those 4 episodes? Why did they release the other half so late?
Also I haven't seen the episodes yet but is the quality of these 5 new episodes for season 3 on par with the first 4 that came out last year? I sort of forgot some of what happened but Bestie was probably the best episode this season on the first half.
No spoilers bc I haven't finished yet but as a Jeep owner, that range rover would have smoked my wrangler, and my wrangler would have flipped 🙃
I feel like it was a lost concept and they had no idea how to truly execute it because it was terrible.
