Re: American Horror Story
This thread got me intrigued about the show. Going through baseball withdrawal, so I spent an evening watching episodes 1 through 4 On Demand. Not sure that was a good idea ... that was a whole lot of creepy stuff in a row. Left me feeling sort of unsettled, maybe a little dirty, but I'm hooked.
The ghost thing seems to be only one "Horror" of this show. It's the play of the bazaar situation with the weaknesses of the characters. What does the husband do when the burn man kills his girlfriend? Can't call the cops ... how do you explain this? What would his wife do? Trapped. So, he lets the burn man bury her in the back yard and then builds a gazebo on top of her. Of course, you have to think we haven't seen the last of the girlfriend. A true horror in the making from the very beginning.
I'll be watching episode 5. So much of this is spinning out of control and yet to be revealed. For example, the show begins with these old photos of children. Have I missed something? What's the deal with those pictures?
